A chain guide (3) for the front derailleur (1) of a bicycle, comprising a first plate (4) intended to shift a chain from a first toothed crown to a second toothed crown with a larger diameter, a second plate (5) facing said first plate (4) and intended to shift said chain from said second toothed crown to said first toothed crown and connecting means (7) between said first plate (4) and said second plate (5). The first plate (4) comprises a first thrusting portion (41) for shifting said chain from said first toothed crown to said second toothed crown. The first thrusting portion (41) is defined on a projection (46) in turn defined at a first plate portion (410) and having a lower profile (450) that projects with respect to the lower profile of the remaining plate portion (451,452). It is thus possible to minimize the size of the other portions of the first plate, thus achieving a weight reduction of the chain guide, without altering its performance or reducing its structural strength. <IMAGE>
