Hi there, The following Shimano mech's fit the whippet frame according to the website: The following Mechs need a 1mm washer between the HDM plate and the mech:
Any SRAM HIGH DIRECT MOUNT, 3x10, DUAL PULL
Shimano FD-M771-D (XT) 9 speed
Shimano FD-M661-D (SLX) 9 speed
Shimano FD-M771-10D (XT) 10 speed
Shimano FD-M661-10D (SLX) 10 speed
But I was curious as to whether this one would work: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=69486
I can't see why not. It's the same thing but isn't stated on the on one website. Anyone else used this one with a whippet frame?
many thanks
Will
I would have thought the fitment would be the same as the other shimano mechs. Is the spacer to correct for chainline or for clearance? Plenty of people running 2x10 on whippets so I would have thought it would be a common mech.
I presume the 1mm spacer is for chainline. I guess its just the newer version of the ones listed. Thanks
