Like I said - JMO
I thought about that. I have a 6-speed 13-30 freewheel which, if I could get this derailleur to work with the 30T cog, would provide almost the same range as the setup I'm trying to make work here, but it would obviously have much bigger jumps between cogs. Anyway, I like triples and I like to make weird combinations work. Wasting my time is one of my specialties.
