throwaway4073 on December 9, 2024 6:05 pm Front derailleur. Easy peasy to adjust yourself, you just need a screwdriver. [This](https://www.parktool.com/en-us/blog/repair-help/front-derailleur-adjustment) guide can help you through the process. For your issue you most likely just need to increase the cable tension – there should be a barrel adjuster (like in [this](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRra6tvh7oqPQye2U4vSaQzfFGySQQbS9R02g&s) picture) on your shifter which if you loosen a bit will move the derailleur over and stop the chain rubbing.
