Ultegra Chain Capacity
I'm currently running on 50-34 chainwheel and 12-25 cassette, a chain capacity of 29. (Surely I can't have got this wrong?). Now I have the jockey wheels at 90 degrees to the horizontal when on big ring and small cog i.e. 50x12 as recommended by the Shimano Tech Service Instructions. This should work but on 50x25 (chain capacity=29) the derailleur is frighteningly streched out. Ok this is not an ideal combination but
1, this is considered fine by Shimano.
2, Shimano advise a maximum capacity of 33, in this case 50x29. Horrible to visualise.
This is as I understand it yet what I'm looking at does not seem healthy.Where am I going wrong?
Cheers Tim
