Wow, I am surprised at that position, I imagine its pretty perfect with the extra couple cm drop!
Ned is looking pretty tasty! The best bikes are always the ones with a good compromise between fun factor and practicality; this is a great example of that, it has personality!
Does the dérailleur have AA/BB position options like the early Campagnolo mechs that were designed for friction? The rubbing problem might be to do with that, as I THINK that switches the dérailleur between high/low ratio gearing, with more teeth on the biggest cog the derailleur would be further away from the wider point of the wheel, so rubbing on spokes or disc would not be an issue, but as you are running higher ratio's (less teeth) the dérailleur would be closer to the bulge of the disc and may need to be adjusted accordingly so the arm is at a different angle, I am not 100% sure if this is the problem or if this is the legit solution, so it may be a case for Mr. Tester!
