Front dérailleur for Surly Ogre?
There are so many versions. Low mount, high mount, top pull, bottom pull, 31.8, 1-1/4, etc. The only thing I'm pretty sure on is I need a top pull. Which one do I get???? Thanks!

Chain ring sizes come into play.
One for say a 22-32-44 triple will have a different radius than one for a 28-38-48. Many come with a couple shims so they can be used on 3 different diameters of seat tubes. Just doing a quick web search lists- Shimano Deore FD-M616, 28.6mm. Top-pull |

What shifters? You need to match road shifters and MTB shifters to their corresponding front derailleurs.
Surly sells the bike with Shimano Deore FD-M616, 28.6mm. Top-pull front derailleur. They say 28.6mm, top-pull or Shimano high direct mount. Says it comes with the adapter, presumably for the direct mount. I assume any 28.6mm top pull FD, matched for the shifters and the tooth count of your crank will work. |
I'm building it with SRAM 2x10. Haven't decided on X9, X0 or XX yet.

A pulley(also QBP) under the FD lets a bottom pull FD work too..
