My buddy had an emonda SLR and he put the same Sram groupset on his bike and it worked fine.
We are all scratching our heads at this point. The new sram red front derailer has 2 bolt on spots so you can raise and lower as necessary for whatever reason the sram force e1 only has one bolt on.
Call or email SRAM... tell them your expensive new FD doesn't fit a common bike and setup.
ask for a compatible replacement FD that WILL Fit a very common road bike and gearing combo.
let us know how they respond.
