The new Shimano 105 double front derailleur is lighter and more efficient, and makes "pro-level" technology more accessible to part time racers and fitness enthusiasts.

Pros: Adjustable, Attractive, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Lightweight, easy to install
"Absolutely fantastic derailleur. Use it with rsx sti shifters, is a bit stiff but it's far far better than the rsx derailleur I had before, for several reasons,
much lighter,
nicer looking with a really good finish on the clamp,
So easy to install with fantastic instructions, honestly, someone who has never touched a derailleur before would be able to install it with the provided instructions,
and it shifts extremely well. It doesn't move up when it shifts to the higher chain ring, so there's less fiddley parts that can go wrong, instead it uses a better designed chain guide to pull it up and down the chain rings.
One thing that I was slightly disappointed was, it covered the frame type sticker at the bottom of the seat stay because it sat quite a bit higher than my last derailleur and I needed a new gear cable because the other was too short for the same reason, it sat higher."
