Removed the Shimano 600 Front Derailleur (FD-6207) from the Miele Bike & Cleaned

Loosen the bolt for the cable (the cable was missing the cap at the end and was pretty bent). 

Remove the front derailleur by removing this one bolt.  It's pretty corroded but it came off OK.  This type of front derailleur is mounted to a hanger that's a part of the seat-tube. (some don't have this hanger incorporated into the frame & use a front derailleur mounting clamp that goes around the seat tube and clamps to it).

The cable guide on the right side of this picture is where the front derailleur cable goes through.  The LH cable is for the rear derailleur.
