Front Derailleur Shimano XTR FD-M986 Double Direct 38/44 2x10-speed

The Shimano XTR FD-M986 is a top-tier front derailleur designed for demanding MTB riders and racers. As part of the XTR series, it delivers exceptional precision, low weight and maximum reliability in the most challenging off-road conditions.

The Down Swing mechanism moves downward to provide stable chain control and consistent shifting under load. A Direct Mount interface allows the derailleur to be mounted directly to the frame, increasing stiffness and improving overall shifting accuracy.

Compatible with 2x10-speed drivetrains and supporting 38/44T front chainrings, the FD-M986 features Dual-Pull cable routing for both top- and bottom-pull setups. It is optimized for frames with a 66–69° angle, ensuring smooth and precise shifting performance.
