No ads when you become a paying member (small fee) of the forum and get a 'star' after your name..

As I said before, ground clearance with the derailleur is an issue when in the tallest gear, hopefully I won't scrape anything too badly. A medium cage derailleur would give more clearance, but I'm not sure if it would have enough range for the cluster.
I run Kojaks also on my Birdy.. very nice tire .. feels as fast as the earlier narrower Stelvios did and faster than the Marathon Racers I have on a second bike.. a medium cage derailleur probably won't be satisfactory if you fold your bike often.. it won't lever enough chain on the fold and the chain will most likely be on the ground.. you did good! that Peugeot is a keeper ...
