I have a stock trials bike I want to put a front derailleur on.
The chainstays are short (15.5"), the tire is fat, and I'm using an 8 speed chain.
There isn't much clearance between the seat tube and the tire, and the derailleur cage rubs the
rubber when in the granny.
Since I am only running a granny and middle, I have thought of modifying the cage, short enough to
prevent rub.
Anyone come up against this and have any suggestions?
