    Derailleur adjustment with compact crank

    I bought a used bike and switched it from a standard crank to a compact crank but I'm having a devil of a time getting the front derailleur properly adjusted. I'm constantly dropping the chain to the outside when I shift from small to large. If I back off the limit I can't get onto the large ring!

    Is there an Ultegra level derailleur designed to work with a 50/34 crank?

    I love my bike but I was so frustrated today I was ready to throw it into a ditch! Please help me preserve this love affair!
