Oh I love learning all this stuff. It’s funny because I’m way more familiar with hydro, di2/ AXS and that crap but older components are very foreign to me. All part of the process. I’ll get there eventually. Hopefully.

I know.  Conflicting info.  Hopefully all good teaching moments and good discussion.

I was going off what Jacob said in a later post- "just checked and it’s a 110 BCD on the big ring."
So Jacob will need to confirm exactly what crank and chainrings he has, and go from there.

Jim:  Correct, however if you see the original post, he is running 42/32/22 which is not compatible with 110/74bcd.  Until I see otherwise or those gear numbers change, we have to assume he is really running the Compact 94/58 Ritchey Logic and 110-113mm is the correct recommend.  His issue seems to support this with the thought being you might not be able to swing a cage out far enough if your spindle is 10mm longer than setup spec.

Jacob:  Feel free to post a pic to clarify, but I think the group has you on the right track.  Good on you for digging in and learning.

The stock BB length for a 110/74 Ritchey triple crank is 120mm.
I'm using an old Campy Veloce triple FD with my Ritchey crank and it shifts fine

I did not have the cable installed. I just manually grabbed the cage and I did have the limit screws open. By my eye it didn’t reach the big ring. But if I’m using too wide of a BB then that probably explains it. I’ve ordered a 113mm width. 

I did not realize the 118mm BB referred to Silver cranks only. That’s good to know. 

I’m an ambitious but poor mechanic. Thank goodness for this list and YouTube. 

Thank you for the help!

Jacob, by "not having enough throw" is that hooked up with a cable or not ?  If it's with a cable then it's obviously a cable adjustment issue, but really whenever a derailleur capacity is in question it's best to simply do it without a cable and manually see how much it can travel with the adjustment screws open all the way.

The Riv derailleur for a 118mm BB is referring to the Silver crankset only, it's not universally applicable.

My Susie is clearing a 2.8" rear tyre with a triple setup on a 113mm BB atm. Not the same crank but majority of that era triples were pretty much made for 110mm BBs except for some Suntours which needed crazy long ones.
