I agree that the BB to get to 47.5mm chain line is ideal given the OP has a 135mm rear hub. http://sheldonbrown.com/chainline.html#standards

I haven't heard of anyone having trouble getting a road triple FD to work with a 47.5mm chain line. I imagine there is plenty of throw available. Can anyone verify this?
