Yup.
He test road it and it was silent. He was a happy guy. Really
over not much because it only had slight rub. The middle and
small rear should be a working gear.
Just a minor comment on that last bit. On my tandem, the chain
doesn't like the two smallest cogs when on the middle ring.
Tracked this down to chainline, basically the chain comes into
contact with the inner side of the big ring and feints at shifting
to it. According to my tandem dealer, there's no simple fix to
this, so I just don't use those combinations
How much is the interference? If small, might it be possible to use spacers to move the big ring a bit farther out? There might be danger of dropping the chain between rings in a slow shift, but it might be manageable.
