Probably a stupid question but I have no idea ……. and looking for answer?

 

On my bike I have a shimano ultergra 6700 front derailer which is a clamp on. The derailer is fixed to the clamp with an allen key bolt.

 

Can this derailer be used on a frame which is braze on ...?

 

What do I need to look for to know if it can be used … ?

From what you have described, the deraileur that you have is not a clamp on, it is a braze on. It has been attached to your bike with a braze on adaptor.

 

Braze on adaptors are clamps that allow you to attach a braze on derailuer to a frame that does not have a braze on bracket.
