I also have a double on my R600 that would refuse to shift to the big ring until the chain was on the last two cogs on the rear. I finally got it figured out, but for the life of me I cannot remember what I did.,,,,BD
No. It was in the granny position. It will "click" three times. The third click makes the chain rub on the big ring, but not engage. At that point I can manipulate the FD throw arm by hand and complete a successful shift. I have not tried shifting it from different cogs in the rear.
