Hi everyone,
I need to replace my stock Rivendell front derailleur. Can someone please recommend a good front derailleur? Here’s my existing setup: Appaloosa Rivendell Silver crankset and 3 rings Rear cassette: Shimano XTR 11-34T Rear derailleur: Shimano Deore long cage With the exception of the rear cassette, all of the components came stock with the bike. I picked up a Shimano Altus FD-M311 at the swap meet. Will this work for my setup? Does a better option exist? Please let me know your recommendations, advice, opinions, and experience! Thanks, everyone.
