Where could my front derailleur be?

This is weird, my Zaskar has been in pieces for 8 months, most of the parts were chucked in my big box of random bits. Now I've decided to put her back together, and have to find the pieces to suit.

One thing that's stumped me, I can't find my front derailleur anywhere. So, can you guys suggest random places where it might be, and I'll have a look.

I know this is a bit silly, but it's in the name of fun.
It's definately not in the freezer, under my bed, or on the bike, so that rules out the most obvious places... where could it be?
 
in your toolbox
in your sockdrawer
in your hand
on the middle of your workbench
on the bike
 
ive always wanted technology to bring out a real life google search engine. you type in back derailleur and you will see this aura around it. how cool would that be :p
and as for places to look: has it fallen under your workbench or car or somewhere under something?
 
on a mates bike.

is it anything special? I have a few lying around, 1 xt one- might be nice.
 
ur chain guide killed it!

its gone!!! :)

Naa try umm in the pile of tyres you have in teh garage thats always where my shit ends up :)
 
At Cash Converters for $5

Or maybe the reason the Zaskar was apart was because the mech was broken so you stripped the bike to service it?
 
My 15mm spanners are the ones that go missing constantly...
Alas, I cannot find the derailleur. When it gets cooler, there's one more place I can think of that will get looked through, and that's under the big pile of computer junk in my room. It'll be a big task to undertake, moving all this stuff :shock:

Anyway, to get me by, I've decided to use a DuraAce derailleur as a chainguide to run single ring, and will wait until new cranks arrive before I worry about shifting gears.
 
BBORB got emptied and sorted out twice in the past 24hrs, so it's not there :(
Although I did manage to find some other stuff that I didn't even know existed. I have 3 oldschool XT derailleurs, and a set of the first ever STI levers as well.
 
Hey Rik. You do remember that if you buy my Zaskar frame, it comes with an XTR front mech and XTR shifter... hint hint :lol:
 
what a shameless plug
