I made a short video of a front derailleur hack I've been doing for the last few years. I came up with this idea to mimic the structural stability of Shimano Di2 and 11 speed group front derailleurs that have a support screw and backing plate installed. Older front derailleurs, primarily those with braze on type mounts and carbon fiber frames. The improved shift performance from the small to big ring is pretty dramatic.
