ABSTRACT:
An improved front derailleur for a bicycle, is provided with a mounting nose extending from a base member of the derailleur and with a support mounted to the nose integrally therewith or independently thereof, the support including an insertion bore for a control wire and a socket for an outer sheath guiding the wire. The mounting nose and support have guide slots in continuation of the insertion bore and extending therefrom, the guide slot extending in a direction away from a linkage member of the derailleur. The guide slots have a length larger than the maximum wire deflection created when a control wire having no outer sheath is operated.
