I'm using a Shimano 105 9speed FD, the model FD-5500 I believe. For those needing HS FD's , the Dura Ace, Ultegra and 105's work perfectly for HS. . . . up to the 10 speed models that is. I was conversing with a custom builder who still sells HS+G on many of his bikes, and he told me the 10 speed models don't have the cage movement anymore for the triple. I'm glad I bought a spare 105 FD in '99!
I've been meaning to try one of my Campy SR FD's on the bike, but just never get around to doing it. I think they work fine though too.
