Not if its a compact (and short chainstays).Rubbing on the inside of the 50 when you're in the 11t perchance and it getting picked up by the ramps/pins?
It happens....deal.
Not that theres any need to of course ๐Ÿ˜‰

It works fine on mine also (I am a girl-it's my 'training' bike) and I've seen it a lot ๐Ÿ˜•

You'd be crossing the chain going small - small anyway so you wouldn't want to be using the gears in that way.

Just man up and keep it in the big ring at all times....
