Really quick XTR Front Mech question
- Thread starter unkleGsif
- Start date
top pull. makes no sense as a bottom pull - pinch bolt is located too far over the top of the cage as well.
the channel cut into the pinch bolt surface would indicate the direction that the cable rests and is pulled.
i could be wrong, but, as a general rule, i think dedicated top pull front mechs have the band higher than bottom pull/dual pull....

Top pull. I think that they just ran on an old model to meet customers' needs - volumes were probably too small to justify a redesign. Frankly, most of the 'redesigns' are mainly about styling anyway. :roll:
There are a fair few other bits (non-series) that they also run on - RX100 deep drop brakes existed for years for road bikes for example, long after RX100 became Tiagra.
