Tom: Good on ya for sticking with the Jubilees... NICE TOUCH!!! I believe the original crank had a 42/52 combo. I would think you'd simply need to mount the front derailleur slightly lower on the seat tube (and position it to accommodate the wider distance/range created by the 46/32 combo). Would there be any reason the derailleur cage couldn't handle this extra distance?
Can't wait to see this baby...
