Apologies if I haven't understood your question correctly, but if there is 
interference between the derailleur clamp and bottle cage, you could 
consider using these spacers to create extra clearance:

2023-01-04 Thread Richard Rose

Well I’ll be, the seat tube most definitely IS ovalized. But, it happens pretty abruptly at the very end. It’s definitely round just a bit below the bottom cage boss - just enough to squeeze that rear der. in there I think. I am missing the correct spacers to test fit it but just holding it there looks promising.Sent from my iPhoneOn Jan 4, 2023, at 5:24 PM, Danny wrote:Is the Gus seat tube ovalized down at the bottom like the Susie?

Is the Gus seat tube ovalized down at the bottom like the Susie? I seem to
remember being the case.

If so, I ran into an issue trying to fit a low clamp FD with a 24-34-guard
setup on a Silver crankset on my Susie. Clamp would have been on the
ovalized portion.

I don't think you'll have any issues. I have a low clamp XT front derailer
set up to clear a 46t big ring on my Gus and it's still a cm or so below
the lower water bottle boss. I'm imagining that you'll probably be running
smaller rings than that, since it appears you have a derailer designed for
a double and not a triple, the shorter cage of which will also let it go
lower without hitting the chainstay. It does cover the Silver tubing
sticker if you care about that.

[RBW] front derailleur on a Gus?

2023-01-03 Thread Richard Rose

Gathering parts for my Gus Build. I had this deore fd on my Clem. It worked 
just fine but I changed it out to a nearly identical XTR for cheap. So I 
can use the Deore on the Gus. My question; are there interference issues on 
a Gus / Susie between a front derailleur and the seat tube water bottle 
mounts? A quick measurement from the Clem suggests it may be close. I will 
not know for sure until I have a crank in hand but trying to plan ahead.
