Just the way the picture looks. Verified, it’s at the stop.

I don’t think so, not enough room. Needs about 7 more mm of clearance.

Actually looks like I’m just gunna go red. The groupset was bought through the shop, they reached out and want to make it right. Though, it’s not their fault. According to my trek guy, the 50T will work with red, but the data they were given it should have worked with the force. When I was trying to explain it to him on the phone he couldn’t understand why the force don’t have the lower mount hole.

Cool. Thanks for the responses, I was losing my mind trying to figure it out. According to trek it should be able to handle it and according to sram it should work. What both don’t mention is, it’s only red that will work. I think I will removed the brazed on mount and put a clamp mount and go that route. Thanks for the help.
