are the cables pre-installed, and how does it pair with a Shimano front derailleur?

Came with cables installed,seemed to shift the front derailleur Shimano fine while I had these on my mtb., I didn't get much of a chance to try them, the day I installed them the shifter for the rear quit working while I was adjusting the derailleur.

parts is just a add on word meaning more than one item in the box for this unit. cables are included. there is a standard set of system set ups for a range of applications with or without upgrades. also if you don't see what is rite for your bike just send roy hartman @ dynojet an email and he will help you out

Maybe. The derailer travel is determined by your cable control mechanism. My bike has three stations where the cable is 'click-locked' into place. Other bikes have a lever that is tightened just enough to hold it in place while still allowing for shifting gears. So, in other words, I would look for a front derailleur designed to work with your bike.

I'm using the barend shifters with my old 8 speed alivio rear and front derailleurs with 9 speed cassette, there won't be any issue if you are going to use 9-speed all the way, cassette, rear and front Derailleurs

Yes. Those are the ones on my bike. But your derailers might have a different ratio and that could cause incosistancies when shifting.

Did you ever find out? I thought SRAM uses a different pull ratio, making them incompatible with Shimano equipment.

Yeah, i got both. I bought shimano shifter 2 times and i suspect you always get both. Don't know if they make singles.

Yeah. They came ready to install. I just bolted them on and rode. The work great.

Yes, this is the rear 9-speed and front 3-speed shifters with cable.These also have the removable gear indicators with the covers attached to the shifter, under the indicators. The block-out plates come on the shifters from the factory, previous answer is incorrect. The seller told me they didn't home with the shifters but when they arrived, covers were there, right where Shimano put them.

This will work, but you need to check on the shimano web site to see if your rear deraileur will work with the 28 tooth cog. Mine made noise because the idler gears were making contact with the 28t cog. I ended up buying a new mid length cage rear deraileur. They are pretty cheap online.

Yes it is, and will not work. You can use a xt 9 speed derailleur for your intended purpose. Hope this helps.

I think the cables are intended for the "pro" quicker shifting traditional bar-end cabling. That means the cable does not run under the tape to the flats. It is intended to come straight of the shifter only after a couple of wraps of tape. You can look up pictures if you need help. This means if you run it under the tape on a big bar or big bike, you may come up short. I did on my 59cm with 44cm bars. Hey, its Dura Ace so you can't complain.

Not enough information to tell you if this derailleur will work for you. Need an idea of the cable routing and if cabless pull from the top or bottom of the derailleur. Sorry I can't help you resolve this question. Nick Carper

Sup mark, you would slip them on the handle bars (they indicate which one goes on the right side and left side). The "double" rings you see on the shifters can be tightened down to a custom fit by using a screwdriver, you can put the shifting levers to the angle of your desire. Afterwards you would just wire the cables through you bike and to your derailleurs. if you have more questions, feel free to ask lol. hope this helps.

As for instructions there are plenty of videos on youtube that demonstrate how to install and calibrate the shifters. In terms of ferrules, yeah no one seems to include them. I reused the ferrules from the cables I replaced. I have also used electric wire crimps as well that I picked up from the hardware store.

The set I bought from Amazon did. I think this is the link to the documentation but their server appears to be down so I can't check:http://cycle.shimano-Try searching on eu.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/SI/SI_0094A/SI-0094A-001-ENG_v1_m56577569830667768.PDF Try searching on "Shimano FC-M410 PDF"
