Ultra-precise.
"Complicated adjustment the first time, but frighteningly precise... and unattractive. However, pulverized derailleur on first use, certainly due to poor clamp torque."

The SHIMANO Ultegra FD-R8000 front derailleur offers ultra-smooth shifting. It raises or lowers your chain perfectly, with no extra effort. The result: precise, direct and instantaneous shifting.
The successor to the FD-R6800, it differs in that its more compact design guarantees greater robustness and better compatibility with all frames on the market in terms of cable routing, particularly with the trend towards wider tires (25c or even 28c). The new design is also more tolerant of chain crossings.
