That's disappointing. I wonder what problems, if any, one would experience using a front derailer with a Birdy.

Anyway, I'm sorry to read that it didn't work out. Maybe if the SRAM 11-speed system with the 10-tooth cog will be an option in the future. At the moment, it still sells for over $300 USD not including the freehub body. A ridiculous price, IMO.
