Advent front derailleur?
The Microshift advent system has shifters for drop bars and an oddly shaped front derailleur that has a range of 44-48.
The drop bars shifters are only sold individually and not as a set.
Why?

It appears that the drop bar shifters come as a set that is intended for 1x use, with the left lever being a brake only. There is an optional left lever with a paddle to operate a dropper post.
The advent trekking front derailleur is compatible with Shimano Mountain cable pull, meaning that there is no drop bar lever that is compatible.

I guess the best solution is a end bar shifter. Do any exist for mountain bike pull?
