Ed, I think you're right. I looked at the pic again and it does appear the

As others have pointed out, a cable/housing swap should not involve *any*
adjustments to the derailleur itself. May be too late but I hope you let
the FD be...
My guess is you don't have enough cable throw to get the FD onto the big
ring. Some things that could be:
- Shifter cable housing w
Were this my bike, I would confirm...
- That all the holes in the back of the shifter pod, the housing, and the
grips are all lined up and in a straight shot
- That the FD cable is all cool at the bottom bracket shell and that
nothing is keeping it from getting in and out smoothly

Ok, that sounds like the limit screw is the problem. You seem to be reaching a
stop at the derailer, then the housing starts bowing out as you keep pulling on

Hmm, that doesn't look right. The groove at the end needs to be deeper so your
housing gets a straight shot into the shifter, it shouldn't be jutting down
like that. Can you slide the housing through the twine enough to back it away
from the shifter, spin the shifter sideways and get a screwdriv
