ABSTRACT:
A front derailleur for a bicycle includes a chain guide and a moving member for moving the chain guide axially of a multistage front chain gear assembly so that a control wire is operated to switch a driving chain guided by the chain guide from one front chain gear to another. A swinging member has one end which includes a support for supporting the control wire or an outer sheath therefor. The swinging member is pivoted at an intermediate portion thereof to the moving device. An adjusting mechanism is located between the other end of the swinging member and the moving member to adjust the position of the swinging member with respect to the moving member and to adjust the position of the chain guide with respect to each front chain gear.
