The weight savings between the two mounting styles is best illustrated by the New Cyclone front derailleur, which was produced in both styles. The standard, hinged clamp version (FD-3300) had a claimed weight of 101g, while the endless band version (FD-3700) had a claimed weight of 94 g. Though the actual weight saving was not great, it was a significant 7% reduction in component weight.
