Hi All ,
Can anyone suggest some Shimano mtb front mechs 3x9 that would work for a seat tube angle of 73.5. I have searched high and low but can only see front mechs for 66-69 degrees. I need something for my 2000's Voodoo Wanga to convert it from canal path single speed bike to something that can tackle hills. I mistakenly bought a 66-69 degree one but it just isn't having it and need to get something different.
Any model numbers I can search for or if anyone has one lying around in the spare parts bin I would very gratefully take it off your hands.
Cheers
Dicki

A quick search online suggests a 70-73 degree angle is more common on road frames so maybe a road triple may be your answer?

It was a quick skim, I am no expert. I'm also not sure if road triple is the same cable pull ratio as MTB.
