Here is a picture:

Am curious as to what mech you're supposed to fit on that? has a roadie braze on.
RS VR6:
You can use a road bike one? Unless the pull ratios are different on the road FD's.
SamSkjord:
Shimano road and mtb use different pull ratios, Sram decided to not make esoteric builds harder/impossible by using the same cable pull ratio on road and mtb. Road front mechs also tend to be rated for a lower difference in ring tooth count.
RS VR6:
I know the pull ratios are different for the RD's...but the front I've used a SRAM FD with my Shimano XT shifter. I know that the 6800 and 7900 up Shimano road groups have different pull ratios in the FD. I think the difference on the ratios with Shimano FD's come from where the cable attaches on the FD.
I want to say that you can run a SRAM road FD with a Shimano mountain shifter and you can run a SRAM road FD with a mountain shifter.
SRAM road and mountain have the same 1.1 pull ratio on the back.
I have SRAM Red on my road bike and X0 on the mountain.
SamSkjord:
Now that is interesting, you may have just solved a problem I was having with a build :D
Thanks.
