Shimano 105 Triple Front Derailleur - 28.6mm Clamp-On - Black.

All my other components are black and my LBS can't find one in black, so I thought I'd ask y'all :)

Know where I could buy one? :)

Thanks man, but knowing me, I'd fvck it up somehow.

I'd rather have a silver component than ruin it.

No, seriously, I'm an idiot. Last night, I was working on my bike in the family room. I need something to hold up a part while I detached it. I grabbed what was close to me, turned it on it's side to get the right height and proceeded to work.

The thing I grabbed and laid down was my wife's wine luggage holding wheeled bag... she left one of the wine bottles open and 500ml of red wine came pouring on the carpet.

I am a 'tard.

yeah, but I need 28.6mm clamp and could only find 31.8mm Clamp. No BOs either.

Thanks tho, cuz I'm dumb enough to forget that.
You could always get a braze-on, and get an adaptor from Shimano. That's what I did with my new frame. The adaptor clamp would be silver though...

LO, if you're worried about painting, there is always black duct tape :) Removable color!

Looking through shimano's site, there doesn't appear to be a black road front derailleur. The Ultegra is as close as it gets.
They used to make a black 9spd 105 group, that's what he's looking for.
What about an FSA? Are you running compacts?
