Front derailleur and Crankset

The allowable combinations of front derailleurs and rear derailleurs depend on the difference in the number of teeth
of the gears and the shape of the front derailleur plate.
If the conditions given below are not satisfied, then the desired shiftability may not be obtained.
FC (top gear) - (low gear) = < FD (top and low capacity)
FC (top gear) - (middle gear) => FD (minimum difference in teeth number between top and middle)
Front derailleurs and the number of teeth for corresponding cranksets are given in the chart below.

Interchangeability between brake systems
Depending on the brake and brake lever combination to be used, the relationship between the input at the brake
lever and the actual braking force output at the wheels is very easily affected.

Be very careful when combining a brake and brake lever. Incorrect combinations can cause accidents or insufficient
braking forces due to improper cable strokes. Be sure to carefully consult the chart below and select the brake and the
matching brake lever.

Drivetrain Interchangeability

Front derailleur and Crankset

The allowable combinations of front derailleurs and rear derailleurs depend on the difference in the number of teeth
of the gears and the shape of the front derailleur plate.
If the conditions given below are not satisfied, then the desired shiftability may not be obtained.
FC (top gear) - (low gear) = < FD (top and low capacity)
FC (top gear) - (middle gear) => FD (minimum difference in teeth number between top and middle)
Front derailleurs and the number of teeth for corresponding cranksets are given in the chart below.

Interchangeability between brake systems
Depending on the brake and brake lever combination to be used, the relationship between the input at the brake
lever and the actual braking force output at the wheels is very easily affected.

Be very careful when combining a brake and brake lever. Incorrect combinations can cause accidents or insufficient
braking forces due to improper cable strokes. Be sure to carefully consult the chart below and select the brake and the
matching brake lever.
