Anyone know if an MTB FD would work with road shifters?

You have to be little more specific.

Which groupset (manufacturer)? How many speeds? Mechanical or electronic?

Sorry, 11 speed Shimano. Basically the problem is the bike currently has a road crank on it but have had to shim the BB to get the arm to not rub the stays. Ideally I think an MTB crank would be better but would like a double. I have a road FD but don't think it would reach a 73mm crank.

I see you're running GRX 1x (with a RD-RX812 rear derailleur). I don't think you'll be able to run a double, because the rear derailleur doesn't have enough capacity for that.

So, I guess you're stuck with 1x. Unless you also plan to replace the rear derailleur.
