Can you please give me a hand?
I am confused.
I am toying with what to do re mechs etc etc.
I have a Shimano Deore DX FD-M650
So, I am trying to work out what size it fits.
front mech 002 by chuffedas, on Flickr
But the numbers confuse me:
http://velobase.com/ViewComponent.aspx? ... AbsPos=185
This states that there is 28.6mm Clamp; 31.8mm Clamp;
Adjustable Clip 28mm - 33mm
All good so far.
Now, on the inside of the actual mech it states 1 1/8 now that is 28.6.
I am thinking that this might be the adjustable clip that the above mentions.
But on the outside of the jubilee clip type band itself, it states 34.9
So, is this the 28-33 but is 28.6 - 34.9? or something?
