first of all sweet bike. I ran into problems with my 105 front derailleur on my pacer. I got the braze on version and had to get an adapter and I cant clear tires over 25c on the rear. Did you run into this problem with the band on front derailleur? I wanted to know before I pulled the trigger on one. the part where the cable clamps in is too close to my rear wheel and I want to ride 32's on it.

Thanks! I added a picture of the clearance at the derailleur clamp. I've got plenty of room. I'm sure I could fit 35's or larger.
