I've just fitted a modern group to my early 90's steel frame, and the front derailleur braze on seems too high for the compact crankset. I'm seeing something like 5-6mm clearance above the chainring teeth when the derailleur is at the bottom of the braze on adjustment range.
It still shifts, but I'm wondering if anyone has experience with a similar problem? Can you get some sort of extension for the braze on?
