Fat Bike front deraileur

[BUTLER]

I have a titan sport fatbike but would like to change the front deraileur.

Now question number 1: Will it be possible to use a 3 x front deraileur (clamp on) and set it to run a 2x set up.

Question 2 if not where in south africa can I source the problem solver adapter for mounting a direct mount deraileur.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Search Fat Bike in the Classifieds. There is a SRAM x7 2x10 front derailed listed there.

I do not need the derailer I need the adapter

Try your local bike shop, they always have spare kit laying about, especially Silverback agents. My Silverback double Scoop has a similar adapter for the front derailleur. Perhaps they can help get you a spare. I've been riding my Double Scoop for about a year and hardly ever use the granny gear. I could easily run it as a 1 X 10 rig. I am sure you could use a 3 X front derailleur if the limit screws allow sufficient adjustment. (My bike's shifter is a 3 X unit, limited by die adjustment screws on the front mech).

I just want to know if a 3 x f/d will work on a fat bike if I want to run a 2 x set up.

Hi Jaques
