That FD . If I only know classic looking FD's with their nice long cages, I'd say that particular FD looks like it's been chopped off. Of course that not literal, but functionally it has been. I can totaly see how such a cage could jam as seen in the photo. I can't see exactly how many teeth on the big ring but by what I can count it's more than 42 teeth, and those FD's supposedly are for a 42t ring max. I can't that in itself means anything, all that matters is the chain appears to have jammed where on a full cage FD it would not.
You know, there are better ways to accomodate smaller rings that still use a traditional looking/functioning cage. Just scale it down, but just chopping it off in the front not lonly looks awful it looks like it actually was chopped off by someone in their garage. Spare me the "to each is own" nonsense, it looks awful. A big fancy coporate name doesn't make those behind the mask infallible to wonkiness. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
