Hello,

I am in need of a new front mech due to a snapped cable pinch bolt for my lapierre zesty 514 2010.

I just wanted to confirm this is the right mech, looks the same: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=20686

E type?
Thanks
Ian

    Thats a 9 speed yours would be a 10 speed so may make a difference.

    The 2010 was 9 speed but thanks for the reply assuming that's the right type then.

    Taking it to work tomorrow to dry drill out the old hole and re- tap it, if not its new mech time.

    Yeah should be 9 speed and that mech will work. I actually changed mine to an SLX double-specific model when I went 2x9 as it's supposed to cope with the jump a bit better so might be worth looking at if you're 2x9 also (although they're hard to get hold off, had to get mine from one of the German shops in the, can't remember which though!)

    The bike is currently set up 2x9 so slx double would work although would also mean switching shifter? Im guessing not.

    Going single is a good possibility, Just moved down to London in the last few months from the North east and its much flatter here, i think if i force my self to use my bigger ring more ill build the leg strength to switch to single
