The ESGE ships with a top plate and some plastic feet that are intended to clamp down onto the rear stays. The Lift's derailleur cable and rear brake line interfere with that. Instead, just use a shorter bolt with a large washer. Can't recall which one, but probably a M10x20 or M10x25.

DON'T DO THIS ESGE MOD. Although my bike is fine, 'awm72' had the cross-member mounting plate fracture on his.
