The Saint Posted August 8, 2007 Share I have just put a new cluster on my bike, went from a 12 - 23 to a 13-25 and now the chain scrapes the front derailer at the top and bottom on the large and small chain rings respectively of the cluster - not cross chaining, anyone know how I can adjust this? It's shimano by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dylankeyter Posted August 8, 2007 Share there are two nuts you can adjust with a screwdriver on the top of the front derailleur, one for h and one for L, i think u need to loosen or tighten both of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremyd Posted August 8, 2007 Share yes well back to the topic at hand. I also changed my rear cassette and haven't had a decent ride since. Been back to LBS three times and they've since changed the chain as well as the cassette. (the one I had on was only 6 months old) I'm seriously thinking of reverting back to the original cassette that came with the bike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
