I just switched my road bike to a more upright/flat set of handle bars. My old handle bars had STI shifters on them (Deore) and my new ones have Shimano V Brake Index Shifters on them.
I found by raising the FD higher than normal I was able to get my "trim points" back (they didn't work at the 2cm distance).
I was able to use Alex's video to get my travel screws all set. But then comes the problems.
I shift to the big cog in the back, the small cog in the front, and then I move to the middle cog on the front. It makes all kinds of racket. So I adjust it (a lot) with the barrel adjusters, and the noise goes away. But then I shift to the lower sprocket on the front again and I get a very loose FD cable hanging from my frame.
Not sure what to do about this.
Thoughts??
Thanks in Advance.
