The front derailleur is a component
of the drivetrain of the bicycle which
moves the chain between the chainring
of the crankset to obtain different final
drive ratios (the parts of the front derail-
leur are shown in Fig. 1).

D - cage insert (Record
only)
When the chain is on the larger chainring, there are two possible front derailleur po-
sitions to avoid any chain rub against the front derailleur cage (Fig. 2) that may be
caused by the position of the rear derailleur.
