Thanks for the input new cable housing on the way, Front Derailleur is maxed out on limit screws yet wont move the chain over unless I manually move it the last couple of mm only to have the tension spring pull it back. Tried most of the solutions I can find including taking grips to the cage, any ideas or should I find an FD with a different size cage?
As for riding and waiting, I would kick myself if a Curcuit came up and there were no $ in the fund. BTW what is a reasonable price, post boom, for a Sante Circuit? Prices seem to be hitting bottom as can be seen by this Bianchi I picked up for $50 and so far am $30 into my 1983 Specialissima L'Eroica Replica project. No idea what it was origionally but it's not heavy and chrome under the paint.
thanks again
