Front Derailleur-Dura-Ace
When the chain is on the large chain ring, the chain rubs (very slightly) against the outer guide of the derailleur cage. The top adjustment screw doesn't seem to change the final resting location of the cage - it seems to adjust the "throw" (the cage moves over further when shifting but returns to a position right above the chain ring). In reading the Shimano installation instructions they say "The level section of the chain guide outer plate should be directly above and parallel to the largest chain ring." - won't this guarantee the chain will hit the cage?
Rear Derailleur - Shimano Ultegra
This is a 10 speed (a big change from my 7). I can't seem to adjust to shift to the largest cog. However, I can get it to shift beyond the smallest cog (I can correct this easily).
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks
Full Disclosure - I live in Florida and probably only need 2 gears (into the wind, with the wind). I rode a 188 mile brevet last weekend and one fellow rider rode the route on a fixed gear bike.
