Possible bottom bracket issue
Hi I have a problem that my front derailleur will not meet my 3rd crankset. I have a bottom bracket which is a vp-bc73 bc1.37”x24T. 68x118. and a chai set that is a shimano alivio fc-m410. Could I be right in thinking my bottom bracket is too long. Many thanks

Yes. It looks like the FC-M410 takes a 113mm spindle to achieve a chainline of 50mm:

Sorry I am making a terrible joke and will now stop....Just had too do it, glad you get the problem resolved.
For those in the future reading this, check manufacturer specs for everything and make sure you are within them for optimal compatibility!
