Frequently Asked Questions

What fits Shimano CLARIS FRONT DERAILLEUR (CLAMP BAND MOUNT) 2X8s?

On this page we list shifters that drive this derailleur, cranksets for this front derailleur. Each listing was matched on a specification we hold for both parts; anything we could not verify is omitted rather than assumed to fit.

Can I use a higher or lower speed chain with Shimano CLARIS FRONT DERAILLEUR (CLAMP BAND MOUNT) 2X8s?

No. Shimano CLARIS FRONT DERAILLEUR (CLAMP BAND MOUNT) 2X8s is an 8-speed component and needs an 8-speed chain. Chains for different speed counts have different external widths and inner-plate profiles, which causes poor shifting or interference with the neighbouring sprockets.
