For $80 it had better work like a fine Swiss watch! On Aug 18, 2016 7:19 PM, "René Sterental" wrote: > Yes. I just installed one on my Atlantis with the triple René Herse > crankset that doesn't work with the regular triples. > > You can find as many as you need in the

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

I had to go to a 126mm wide BB so the René Herse crankset could clear the Atlantis chainstays. With the Sugino crankset I had before, the BB was a 110-113, I think. I forgot to measure it. Regarding the rub you're getting, perhaps you need to tweak the position/rotation of the FD slightly? I was

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

I couldn't get any of my doubles to work with the triple crankset. The cage wouldn't extend outwards far enough. Only the Sun XCD worked and has the flat cages. René On Friday, August 19, 2016, Tim Gavin wrote: > I've had good success with old-style double FDs

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

The issue being requested is that the derailleur has flat cages and is silver. All the Shimano triples have the shapes in the cages for the Shimano crankset combo. On Thursday, August 18, 2016, Hunter Ellis wrote: > Boulder Cycles has a great Deore LX triple for $20.

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

Yes. I'm running 24/38/46 with René Herse rings that have no ramps or pins. It works perfectly. On Thursday, August 18, 2016, Lungimsam wrote: > So the sunxcd fd works with 1)triples 2)small chainrings? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

I've had good success with old-style double FDs in various installations. I tend to use mid-'80s Suntour Cyclone FDs because they're easy to find and cheap-to-free. In my experience: They work fine on a triple 48-38-26 (with friction thumb shifters). They work fine on a Stronglight 99 triple

Re: [RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

Yes. I just installed one on my Atlantis with the triple René Herse crankset that doesn't work with the regular triples. You can find as many as you need in the online Soma Fabrications shop. It's the Sun XCD front derailleur, all silver, works with 8, 9 or 10 speed beautifully but it's braze-on,

[RBW] ISO: Triple front derailer with flat cages

You never know , a few years ago I bought 2 great vintage Deore fd from a seller on ebay for a song. While they were not new in box there was no sign of any use at all. These were few models later than the original Deore , all silver and flat inside the cage. I run one on my Bomabil and the

Anyone know of any new model triple front derailers that are al silver and have flat cages, not any with those molded bump outs that can rub the chain? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop
