That clearly is not the case though. The chainline is so far offset to the outside that when having the chain in one of the 4 biggest cogs on the casette and then backpeddaling, the chain falls off. That clearly is an issue with the crank, and not the FD, since the FD has nothing to do with backpedaling. And that the FD required a +14 offset to upshift at all is also a good indicator that the crank has a bigger offset than the regular shimano crank.

I'm not discounting the fact that i misinstalled the crankset or blades in any way, it's just that I cant figure out what it would be...
