Shimano Deore M591/590 Front Gear

Shimano Deore M591/590 Front Gear

Shimano Deore M590

The low-clamp top-swing design can be really useful on some full suspension frames where a higher clamp can't be fitted.

Shimano DeoreM591

The high-clamp conventional-swing design is reckoned to be harder wearing.
