Hi, building a 3 speed ATB for hill access in Scotland and cannot get this lever (xt) and front mech. (deore) to work together. Are there compatibility issues between mixed parts ?
If this is the case which front mech should I buy, bearing in mind since its my fourth bike I want to keep the cost to a minimum. Thanks.

no issues."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

What chainset do you have? May be some issues with that.
But the shifter and mech none at all.0 -
chainset is lx square taper M569. The lever seems to move the mech too far over in one sweep. This happens no matter how I set up the stops etc.0

cable connection on the wrong side of the bolt?
all shimano front mechs work with all shimano shifters ( MTB in both cases) as do all Sram front shifters
Shimano front shifters also work with Sram front mechs.
what you have is 100% compatible.
Maybe an installation problem."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Thats helpful, if I know the parts are ok I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks for all advice.0

what is the frame?"Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

Going back to before, the H stop has no bearing on how far the mech moves for a given cable pull: it does stop it moving past a point though.0
