The Shimano Deore M6000 Front Derailleur has a low weight and a clean looking design. Featuring Shimano's Side-Swing technology which increases the shifting performance and provides increased tire clearance.
For a number of odd reasons I built my bike as a 2X10 in a time when 2X11 is popular. Front derailleurs have gone out of style lately, but this one is a true gem. There is no grinding noise, it has good leverage from the shifter, and it has a low profile from the perspective of a large 29X3 tire and body english with large feet. With 'silky smooth' front derailleurs, and un-droppable clutch rear mechs, I am struggling to imagine a strong benefit to a modern 1X drivetrain..but that's a separate rant alltogether.
