“…often making minor adjustments…” kind of goes along with friction shifting, but if it seems excessive, check that the front derailleur cage is absolutely parallel to the big chain ring. It only takes one chain jam to knock it askew. Also that the outer stop of the front derailleur is adjusted as “in” as possible (towards the bike center) to *just* get a shift up to the big chain ring.
If nothing else works you can try using a 9-speed front derailleur. It should have a slightly wider cage, giving you more rear gears before it starts to rub. The downside is a little more shifter motion before you start to move the chain. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
