Ultegra CX70 is a great choice. I'm running a wide compact double, 42/25T,
and it's great on the big jump. The cage is shaped for maximum 48T ring
and makes sense it would be great on a triple.

We've set up plenty of CX70's on triples and wide (46/26) range doubles.
They shift nicely. Stiff, look decent, side plates that don't get in the
way. But a better bet is find an old Shimano R440 front mech, pure silver,
cheap, shift well. That's a great derailleur.

On Thursday,
Thanks for the compliment. I doubt there is enough flex in this frame.
Oversize steel tubes. With the fenders and racks it weighs in at 48 lbs!
Here's dome pics I posted this morning.

In response to Tim Gavin up above, I have had some trouble with a Suntour
FD (XC sport, not Cyclone) not having enough range to move between the
inner and outer chainring. Granted, with a different BB and stock
Chainrings I might have been able to get it to work, but that is something
to keep
Tandem frame flexing alot in the middle?
BTW, I really enjoyed your Rambouillet pics on the Rambouillet site!

RBW sells the Shimano CX70, which was designed for cyclocross dbls. Has
anyone tried it on a triple? On my single bikes I find any derailler with
a not too long cage works pretty well. but the tandem seems to be much
more demanding. No doubt some of that comes from coordination between
Boulder Cycles has a great Deore LX triple for $20. There's a little black
on there IIRC but its mostly silver
