Yeah I think if I'd thought of this before ordering the groupset I'd have probably just hardened up and got a 53/39 crank - but now I've spent the money on the parts I'd rather just use what I have.
Shame there's no magic extension part I can fit, but as you say, it works well enough (occasionally throws the chain over the outside, but not enough to be a big deal) so I'll probably just have to make do.
