I have recently replaced my groupset (Sora to 105) and the whole lot went fine apart from the front mech. I cannot get the (bad word) thing to work without rubbing when on the small chainring (double). The derailleur is fitted right (parrellel to the chain, about 2 mm off the chainring), limit screws set to the Shimano instructions and the front gear change works well. I am coming round to the view that front mechs are the work of the devil :blush:
Any help much appreciated
Cheers

Hi OL
The park website has a good adjustment guide

even when well adjusted you can still get some rub though. :blush:

I symapthise on this one. Thought I had mine set up perfectly at the weekend but it threw the chain off the high side this morning half way to work :blush:

Front changers are the work of the devil, more so with indexing, and even more so with triples. :blush:
