The 105 R7000 Front Derailleur features an optimised, easy to shift, smooth power-stroke. This provides a very natural and easy to activate shifting feel and lighter mechanism actuation; it feels very easy to shift across chainrings. 2 x 11 SpeedMaterial: Clamp: Aluminium; Plate: SteelChain Line: 43.5mmWeight: 95gThanks to the enhanced design, Shimano has designed this front derailleur so that it is compatible with most cable routing options on the market; it also comes complete with a, integrated cable tension adjustment screw to ensure excellent adjustability and convenience when fine-tuning. This is a popular choice for cyclists who are chasing reliability and performance at a wallet friendly price.
The 5700 series 105 front derailleur features a widened link for increased rigidity and improved shifting response, particularly under load. The light action spring reduces the effort required to actuate shifts, enabling quicker gear changes whilst the derailleur and cage have been optimised to work with the latest Shimano's STI lever design (and as such is not backwards compatible). The aluminium hardware of the 105 front mech is clear coated to resist corrosion and maintain their great looks. Designed for 10-speed double chainsets, it has a maximum capacity 16 teeth for use with 50-56 tooth outer chainrings.
Elite road racers need reliable and precise shifting that is both lightweight and durable, and that s why they choose Shimano s Dura-Ace. The R9100 11-Speed Front Derailleur is part of Shimano s new flagship Dura Ace range, boasting elite level performance in a durable and lightweight package. The Toggle Link Leverage construction reduces weight and improves shifting performance, and thanks to improvements in cage design an outer trim is no longer required, allowing the rider to focus on racing. The lightweight nickel-plated forged alloy chain cage reduces weight and increases rigidity whilst resisting abrasion from the chain and the extra wide pivot link and optimised spring tension creates a rigid, flex free shift whilst remaining a smooth and light action. The forged aluminium construction reduces weight without sacrificing durability, the integrated cable tension adjustment is quick and easy to use and the hard-wearing finish is as good as you would expect from Shimano s flagship range. If you re looking to upgrade you existing Shimano Front Derailleur or replace an entire groupset, the Dura-Ace R9100 will not disappoint.

The Razer 2 MTB shoes offer lots of performance for the money. From the exhilaration of fast trail-centre XC loops to lung-busting weekend races, the snug-fitting unibody upper provides excellent all-around support for all-ride comfort. Northwave's asymmetric lacing system also removes pressure from the top of the foot. The supportive upper is complemented by the Performance Regular footbed, adding even more comfort and giving you a solid pedalling platform from which to apply power. To keep your feet feeling fresh, the Razer 2s have mesh zones to allow greater airflow and breathability. Ultrathin reinforced materials keep weight to a minimum while welded TPU reinforcements on the toe and heel protect against rock strikes and hidden stumps. You then come to the XC 10 sole unit. XC 10 Sole Unit The carbon-reinforced XC 10 sole lets you sprint off the start line with a burst of rapid acceleration, carry maximum speed into and out of berms and kick hard up steep inclines with minimal power loss. With a stiffness rating of 10 out of 15 on Northwave's scale, you can be sure power is smoothly applied to the pedals. However, with a touch of flex, you'll also find rough terrain won't cause discomfort as it takes out terrain buzz. The TPU inserts deliver excellent traction when you're off the bike and offer outstanding wear resistance too. Single SLW 3 Closure System The SLW3 closure, developed by X-Dial, builds and improves upon the previous iterations, making the fit and adjustment of your shoes quicker and easier than ever. It gives micrometric adjustment both to increase foothold and to release pressure. Twist to tighten. Press the side button to release pressure incrementally. All easily done on the go. A single button pull also makes it easy to release the laces at the end of your ride too. Quick. Simple, Durable. Precise. A no-fuss and comfortable fit every time. Cleat Guidance These MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.

With the new Super Record, Record, and Chorus groupsets, shifting is extremely easy thanks to the long front plate of the front mech body, meaning greater leverage and therefore truly reduced movement when shifting. Shifting precision is achieved thanks to the design of the new narrower cages. The semi-inner cage, in aluminium, has features that improve shifting speed. The most efficient downshifting on the market is achieved thanks to the integrated outer semi-cage in carbon fibre, a distinctive Campagnolo feature on the Super Record and Record front mechs, or by the positioning of a plate on the tip of the Chorus front mech. Special Inner Cage Design The inner semi-cage, in aluminium, has features that improve shifting speed, give greater rigidity and provides more space for chain crossovers
