Well, we wouldn't need to modify (afro-engineer?) anything if the designers would give it more thought. That spring end limitation is totally unnecessary, and the Sram people could substantially increase the FD range and spare users a lot of frustration!

That seal looks too good and solid just to serve as a shipping protection!

Follow up!

All is put together again, the FD has all the reach it needs, and all settings work fine.
I want to thank all contributors for their ideas and efforts to help me out of this dilemma!
Have a good ride!
