Hi all:
I need some education on front derailleurs. In particular, I want to know about the swing mechanism. What's the difference between top and bottom swing? What difference does it make? How can I work out mine is top or bottom swing?
I have a Deore derailleur, and as part of upgrading the drivetrain, I want to put a new XT. The seller asks me to specify the swing type. Obviously, I'm not buying the part at my LBS. Can someone help?
Cheers,
Amir.
