The clearence for the front derailer over the largest chainring is 1 to 2mm. It was about 10mm. SO I moved it down and realined it with the rear gear set to 7th. The chain needs to be alined with the gear set to 7th gear. You can use a penny or a dime as a feeler gauge. Just put it between the chainring teeth and the out side cage plate. Then check the Derailer to chain alinemant and tighten the clamp and your done. Now all is fine once again.
CigTech, so did you adjust the location or positioning of the front derailer or the front chain-ring?
