T-Bob Posted December 3, 2013 Share Here you go.This is my own personal bike. Not the best picture.Full internal cable routing and also has all the cover plates and cable stops for DI2 or EPS. That looks like a serious weapon. Thanks for all the advice guys. Am weighing up between this and finding who makes the Felt AR5 frame that blue cycles use.  Love this thread. Awesome.

Dont understand what you mean by too high?  What frame model? Also take pics?

dillon Posted December 9, 2013 Share Not near the bike for pictures, problem is that the clamp can not clamp low enough on the seat stay so that you have the 2mm gap between derailleur and cog. I have this one. I think i need a derailleur that the clamp is above the mechanism http://www.fitzgeraldsbicycles.com/images/library/zoom/shimano-deore-lx-front-derailleur-top-swing-copy-181179-1.jpg Edited December 9, 2013 by dillon Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/125808-chinese-carbon-thread/page/70/#findComment-2155538 Share on other sites More sharing options...
