Featuring a 46-53t gear range and a versatile clamp-on or braze-on mount, it delivers smooth, reliable shifting with easy cable tension adjustments. Built with trickle-down tech from Shimano’s top-tier groupsets, it’s optimized for modern disc brake frames and shorter chainstays, making it the go-to choice for serious road cyclists seeking performance and reliability. ## Description While 1x has pretty much become the go-to drivetrain choice for mountain bikers and is becoming the preferred 'cross and gravel set up too, double chainrings still rule on the road. One reason the front derailleur has fallen out of fashion with the off-road set is the added complexity and difficulty in set up, however, on the road, we still want a wide ratio of gearing options with small steps between the cogs as to not disrupt our cadence. This simply isn't possible with one ring and with excellent options like the 105 FD-R7000 Front Derailleur from Shimano offering up an easy install and adjustments and smooth, light shifting, even under a load, it ensures that two rings and a front derailleur will be on road bikes for some time to come. This 105 derailleur features trickle down technology that we're used to seeing from Shimano's higher-tiered Ultegra and Dura-Ace groups including a redesigned cage that's optimized for road bikes with the wider rear dropout spacing utilized for disc brakes along with shorter chainstays. It also accommodates more frame cable routing options and the integrated cable tension adjustment screw makes for easy adjustments. Review: original - Producto original. Excelente Calidad Review: Doublecheck the Size! - I broke the little plate that holds in the limit screws on my original derailleur, so I ordered this as a replacement. I should’ve checked the size of the tube that this clamps to, because this one doesn’t fit. However, I was ready to ride! So I ended up taking the part I needed off of the new one and installing it on my original and it works like a charm. ## Features - Material: [clamp] aluminum, [cage] steel - Pull Type: Bottom - Gearing: [top gear teeth] 46 - 53t, [total gear capacity] 16t - Compatibility: Shimano 11-speed road - Claimed Weight: [Braze-On] 3.4oz (95g), [Clamp-On] 3.9oz (111g) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07G9F26B5 | | Best Sellers Rank | #281,135 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #46 in Front Bike Derailleurs | | Brand | SHIMANO | | Brand Name | SHIMANO | | Case Material Type | Aluminum, Alloy Steel | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 59 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00689228879034 | | Included Components | Front Derailleur | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 9"L x 4.5"W x 4"H | | Item Type Name | Front Derailleur | | Manufacturer | Shimano | | Manufacturer Part Number | IFDR7000BSML | | Material | Multi | | Material Type | Multi | | Model Number | Shimano | | Mount Type | Clamp-On Mount | | Mounting Type | Clamp-On Mount | | Number of Teeth | 16 | | Product Dimensions | 9"L x 4.5"W x 4"H | | UPC | 689228879034 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Limited Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SHIMANO - **Color:** Black - **Item Weight:** 111 Grams - **Material:** Aluminum - **Mounting Type:** Clamp-On Mount ## Images ![Shimano 105 Fd-R7000 Front Derailleur Black, 31.8/28.6Mm - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51PpzHLCYaL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work with a 105 5800 shifter?** A: Yes, 105 5800 and 7000 components are 11-speed and perfectly interchangeable **Q: The picture shows the clap on derailleur but the description is the fd-r70000-fl which is brazed on. which is it?** A: It's braze on **Q: Will this work with R7020 shifters?** A: Yes **Q: So when the bottom specs part says mount.... clamp, braze- on.... i am confused is this the clamp on or braze on fd???** A: It's clamp on.
