When you stand behind the bike and look from the center of the rear stack of cogs then when do they appear to be lined up more with the center of the front stack? When where the previous owner had it or when you made your adjustment?
Happy T-Day!
That's what made me wonder if a simple fix would be getting a MTB derailleur, or even a different crankset since I prefer a different length anyway. But I also hate doing bottom brackets, so I'd want to get one compatible with the one that's installed already
I'll have to look at it when I get back to it.
