My beloved Felt F1, painted in Garmin Slipstream colors, has an issue with the front derailleur. It has three rivets that hold it to the carbon frame. At least one is loose and I get a little movement from it. Do i replace the rivet? Use an epoxy to glue it to the frame? Or send it somewhere to get repaired.
thanks
