R188G Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Hi guys, Got this old Giant Sedona. Bike is very neat, but the front derailleur spring/spring tension point broke, preventing it from shifting back from 3rd to 1st gear. What options do I have here and which derailleurs will work for a replacement here? 3 x 8 drivetrain, Sora front and STX rear with Gripshift.
erikt123 Posted May 2 Posted May 2 Hi, I think I have a replacement Shimano Sora front Triple derailleur for you. Please check if on the inside plate FD-3300 And inside clamp should be for 31.8 . Mine is in perfect condition. If correct contact me on 081 3478152, regards Derek NC_lurker 1
Barry Posted June 13 Posted June 13 (edited) The point that broke is probably the small aluminum stoper for the spring. Dril a 1mm hole in that spot then take an old 1mm drill bit force the round part into the hole with a dab locktight and grind to correct hight that it catches the spring.
