The Campagnolo Centaur 11 Front Derailleur is a simple device that has gotten easier to use with this latest iteration. It now possesses a longer lever arm so that the action of upshifting has gotten easier, with a lighter feel to it. It makes the shifting onto the big plate faster, simpler, something youll barely notice other than your legs moving around more slowly as you ride faster.

Campy has designed the cage to be light and stiff. They utilize steel as the material of choice because its stiff, and at this size, plenty light. Its polished to look good, and relieved of excess weight with smart cut-outs.

The cage shape works with compact, mid-compact, and standard chainrings. The Centaur range derailleurs should stay with Centaur Ergopower levers. This derailleur comes in braze-on style only, so youll either need a mount on your frame, or source a front derailleur clamp that works with the diameter of your seat tube. R&A has plenty of clamps in all the diameters.

The Campagnolo Centaur 11 Speed Front Derailleur weighs 103g. There are two finishes to choose from, Black and Silver.
