However, the H Screw for the front is backed out almost all the way. One more turn out and it's coming out. Is this a problem? The enemy of good is perfect so I hate messing with it, but I'm a little concerned when I have it adjusted that way. If I screw it in it won't shift to the large cog. Repositioning the cage wouldn't help. To my eyes it looks like the cage is straight and the proper height. Does anyone else have the H Screw out that far?
That is often indicative of a mismatch between the derailleur and the chainline. Is this the original crank and BB that went with this derailleur?
