Wanted Shimano XTR FD M950 Top pull down swing 28.6

Think I've got one but as I'm getting married today it probably wouldn't be a good idea sorting through my parts drawers!
I'll get back to you in a few days if you aren't sorted by then

Many thanks for your message while preparing to marry. Congratulations! Looking forward to hearing from you when you will have time.

Those 950 fds were prone to wear and corrosion on that plated aluminium cage - making them rarer than rds. Many had corroded, worn and seized before the next xtr groupset came out - and were replaced with an xt conventional band (if your frame allowed it).

You don't want shims, what condition do you want?

Thanks for your advice. As my xt is working fine, I am interested in only mint condition set. Thanks.

And cheap ones usually look like this:

They come up quite often on here, one will turn up eventually. They go for around £30 in good condition, you will always get people trying to sell them for silly money though.

Thanks, I am patiently waiting for reasonable offer for good condition : )
