Sorry to hijack the thread - although the answer here may help the OP - but I wonder if the Patricks have any notion what is going on with my recent restore. I saved a Raleigh Super Course from ignominious fixiedom. I have a 46-36-26 up front which I wanted to pair with a 13 -30 7 in the back. The Ultegra long cage would not hit the 30. Switched to a 14-28 which works very well. Could it be the location of the der hanger? Perhaps the chainstays are too long?
