How to Install a bike front derailleur ?
Follow these steps to install a front derailleur:
1. Open the cage of the front derailleur and wrap it around the chain.
2. Replace the nut and bolt that holds together the cage.
3. Wrap the derailleur mounting clamp around the seat post, and thread the clamp bolt enough so that it isn't tight but allows the derailleur to be moved by hand.
4. Align the derailleur so that its outside cage edge runs parallel with the chainrings. Visually inspect the position by standing overhead and looking down on the derailleur.
5. Position the derailleur at a height that places it about 2mm above the teeth of the largest chainring.
6. After aligning and positioning, firmly tighten the mounting clamp bolt. In order to limit the movement of the derailleur so that it doesn't throw the chain off the chainrings, you need to set the H- and L-limit screws.
7. Set the L-limit screw so that the side of the cage closest to the bike is about 2mm inward of the smallest chainring.
8. Pull the derailleur away from the bike and over the large chainring.
9. Set the H-limit screw so that when you move the derailleur as far as it will go, it reaches to a position 2mm outward of the largest chainring.
10. After you've found the correct position for the derailleur, pass the cable through to the anchor bolt and, while holding the cable taut with a pair of pliers or a fourth-hand tool, tighten the anchor bolt. Make sure you follow the correct route for the front derailleur cable. Some bikes are designed with the cable coming up from the bottom bracket, and others drop down the length of the seat tube.
11. For a new cable, shift the levers a few times to stretch and seat the cable. Then loosen the cable anchor bolt, pull the cable taut, and retighten if necessary.
12. If you have installed a new cable, cut off any extra and then attach a cable cap to the end. Crimp the end cap in place with pliers. Always leave about 2 inches of cable on the outside or past the cable anchor bolt. This will make future adjustment to the cable and/or derailleur much easier.
