Bikes: 2006 Windsor Dover w/105, 2007 GT Avalanche w/XT, 1995 Trek 820 setup for touring, 201? Yeah single-speed folder, 199? Huffy tandem.

You can use the LX front derailleur with the 105 shifter if you use the last model on this page:

Like mtbikerinpa mentioned, the curvature would be off between a 44T crank and road FD.
