Not sure if I am missing something, but i cant seem to get the Front Derailleur shifting properly.
I'm running a ten speed compact 105.
I set the Low limit with no cable attached, chain on the small front gear and largest rear gear. 1mm gap, no rubbing, all is good.
Then attach the cable, Chain on the Big front gear and smallest rear gear and i adjust the High Limit to a 1mm gap. A few test shifters with the chain still in the rear small gear and all is fine.
But if I then put the chain back in the largest rear gear, the front derailler wont shift far enough out to shift from the small front ring to the big!
To get it to shift I have to let the High Limit out a bit, but by doing this the gap is now to big when on the small rear gear and the chain comes off.
I just cant seem to get it right. I've sort of got it on a unhappy medium at the moment.
Am i doing something wrong, or missing out something that i should be doing, or am i just going to have to live with it!
Thanks in advance for any help
