Agreed looks to be a top pull set-up, but there might be a roller down towards the bottom of the seat tube to allow a bottom pull mech to be used.Looking at the cable guides there's three,it looks like it needs a top pull mech, i'm not 100 % sure but i don't think (1989 only) M732 Deore XT front mechs came in top pull think that was M735 Deore XT onwards.
M733 is just the code they gave i think the 2 finger brake levers and the U-Brake.Hi all thanks for the offers. I just need 5mins to think about them. (Will get back to you)
It’s too pull and no roller.
I think the frames around 1992.
But I wanted to build it with early xt thumb shifters and matching 733 stuff.
(So I might have to fit a later front mech I guess)
