CycleHouse Front Derailluer

The front derailleur is the mechanism that shifts your chain from chainring to chainring. It moves from side to side as you click your front shift lever, carrying the chain along with it.

Left hand: Controls the front gears/front derailleur by moving the chain up and down the chain rings. These levers cause big jumps in gears for sudden changes in terrain. Right hand: Controls the rear gears/rear derailleur by moving the chain up and down the cassette.
