Di2 Compatibility - mix Ultegra, DURA-ACE, XTR, XT and GRX components
Did you know that you can mix Di2 components from different series and categories? Mixing derailleurs is not recommended, but anything else is fair game!
Front Derailleur (3x)
XTR FD-M9050
The XTR Di2 M9050 Down Swing Front Derailleur features easy shifting at the press of a button, improved gear tracking and reliable gear changes even under load. It is meant to be used with a triple crankset. Want to run 2x? You'll need FD-M9070 instead.
Affiliate Links
Using the affiliate links to purchase anything earns the site a small commission, at no additional cost to you.
It also supports Shimano Synchronized Shift and computer controlled auto trim. Note that you need a display in order for synchronized shift to function with MTB derailleurs.
I recommend either the SC-MT800 display, or its XTR equivalent, the SC-M9051.
