Shimano Dura-Ace FD-R9100 2-/11-speed Front Derailleur

The Dura-Ace FD-R9100 Front Derailleur by Shimano - Mechanical shifting at the highest level

The Shimano Dura-Ace front derailleur FD-R9100 with its reduced operating and increased shifting forces provides unparalleled performance on Road bikes with mechanical 2x11-speed drivetrains. Precise shifting with clear feedback and a natural power curve encourage intuitive use. Thanks to an optimised joint design, adjustment is easier than ever. FD-R9100 is suitable for both rim and disc brake frames. It is partially made of carbon and otherwise of lightweight aluminium, which reduces its weight to 70 grams (braze-on version).
