Frequently Asked Questions

What fits with Shimano ALIVIO FRONT DERAILLEUR SIDE SWING (DIRECT MOUNT) 2X9s?

Shimano ALIVIO FRONT DERAILLEUR SIDE SWING (DIRECT MOUNT) 2X9s is compatible with frames, shifters, cranksets, chains that match its technical standards. Most importantly, it requires matching 9-speed components.

Can I use a higher or lower speed chain with Shimano ALIVIO FRONT DERAILLEUR SIDE SWING (DIRECT MOUNT) 2X9s?

No, Shimano ALIVIO FRONT DERAILLEUR SIDE SWING (DIRECT MOUNT) 2X9s requires a 9-speed chain. Chains for different speeds have different external widths and internal profiles, which will cause poor shifting or mechanical interference.

Does this Shimano ALIVIO FRONT DERAILLEUR SIDE SWING (DIRECT MOUNT) 2X9s work with electronic shifting like Di2 or AXS?

No, this is a mechanical cable-actuated component. Electronic systems use internal motors and proprietary signals that are physically and electrically incompatible with mechanical components.
