anyone that know if a braze-on Derailleur with clamp get longer out from the seat tube then a Derailleur with clamp? the reason i ask is becouse i have a dura ace from tripple 9 speed and is a "clamp version" and it will not reach out to get the chain on the biggest chainring.
sorry for my poor english, hope you understand what i ment.
The Dura-Ace triple derailleur (clamp or braze on) is designed for a 45mm chainline, it's likely not going to be able to get to a big ring on MTB chainline. If you were running a 2 ring front it would be OK.
the thing is i am running 2 rings, 42/30, thats why i was wonder why it not will work, have seen alot of other peoples get it to work with 2 chainrings even if they use a crankset with chainlines that are worse then my chainline that i have now. but al i have seen have used braze-on, thats why i was wondering if there was some diffrents.
Most 2 ring MTB setups are using middle and granny positions which would work with the DuraAce, but you're likely stuck with using an MTB derailleur for the middle and outer rings on an MTB chainline.
hmm, have have seen this setup with a xtr crankset, and that one they just had removed the granny, nothing else. has campagnolo a diffrent spec. on there front Derailleur?
other thing i was thinking on was that FSA has a 2x9 crankset, a real dual crankset, and that one hat 50 mm in chainline. so what´s the diffrent that do that my combination doesn´t work
