I did shave off some of the cage to be able to get it lower on the seat tube. It was touching the chainstay. The derailleur was to high. I'm mad they haven't thought about people like me who want to do that... Even with 44, the cage would have been about half of a inch to high to shift properly. The capacity, as the chain line wasn't that bothering to me. I adjusted the line with spacer on the crank axle and the capacity of the front wasn't that far from spec. And a poor shifting shimano is always better than a very good 10spd Sram red 2011
