What exactly is the problem with the derailler? I run the campy triple FD
on 44/30 and it shifts fantastically well. In fact I have a number of
campy front derailler, including the tandem (which are notoriously poor
front shifters) and have gotten them all to work very well.

I have a couple of Suntour X-1 FDs that I have been moving around on my
bikes. The work better than the brighter-optimizes stuff out there now when
shifting otherwise, and aren't fidgety about trim. The current Shimano
panacea (something CX) is made to live in two places with a half click

With doubles like yours, I've found that raising the FD a cm or more away from
the large chainring works well. I have the same White Industries crank set up
on a Hilsen, and after much trial and error, this worked. It gives greater
clearance away from the chain stay. Also, I've found that
Auto-correct made this sort of cryptic. Once again:

I'm running a Dura Ace 7400 FD on my VO compact 46-30 cranks and it's been
working awesome.
I've actually found the opposite to Boomer's reports have worked well for
me. I have the derailleur positioned very close to the crankset, so that it
sweeps fairly tight over the top ring. As with many
I'm running the same White crankset on my new Ocean Air Rambler with 44/28
rings and an Ultegra 6500 FD. works flawlessly. Also running an Ultegra
long cage RD, and it handles the full range on an 11/34 9-speed cassette.
Thought about going with XT, and probably would have worked fine too, but
