zipp 188 hub spoke clearance issues
Quote | Reply
I am having quite a bit of issue when i'm cross-chaining (50x11t) when using my 303 tubular. The body of the derailleur is hitting part of the spoke (closer to the hub rather than further down), and simple addition of a cassette spacer is not helping.

I called up Zipp and was told to go to a dealer, except i have taken it to a shop and the shop couldn't do much about it either. Anyone have suggestions as to what i could do (i also changed the B-screw without much success)?

Fwiw, this happens only on my road bike (Scott Foil) and doesn't happen on my TT bike (Scott Plasma)

Many thanks in advance

Maybe double check your hanger alignment. Sometimes you can cheat the derailleur away from the spokes, still keeping the hanger in tolerance.

Definitely sounds like a hanger issue since it happens on one frame and not the other.
