    Vendetta or Silvio?

    Philip, my only comment is Philip, my only comment is that adding a chainstay extension to the Silvio may compromise the straighter body position you are after. The bike should fit you fine without an extension, and your BB should still be significantly higher than (for example) mine due to...

    Ivan, my ferrule went right Ivan, my ferrule went right through that hole. I think you must have an oversized ferrule or an undersized hole. In any case, it seems to have worked out well for you.

    chain jumping from small ring to large ring all by itself while climbing up hill

    I used to have I used to have chainring/front derailleur problems on my Sofrider, the chain would sometimes lock up or fall off. One time I noticed that some of the teeth on the large chainring were actually bent sideways, I hammered them straight with a rubber mallet and that seemed to help...

    I think my FD shifting issue I think my FD shifting issue is down to the cable loop that goes around the bottom bracket. I used "compression free" shifter cable housing, which is very stiff and does not bend around the BB well, leaving some slop in the cable. My bike shop commented on this when...
