Hello everyone, I don't know why but my front derailleur doesn't reach the largest chain ring even though the limit screws are untightened to their maximum. The trigger on my handlebars also has a lot of slack before actually "pushing" the gear, so maybe I hit the maximum of the trigger and not the derailleur ? Do you know why this would happen ? (In the picture I'm pushing the trigger on my handlebars to the maximum)
Thank you!

With the shift cable loosened are you able to pull the derailuer out to the large chainring?
Sounds like your cable tension is too low. Drop back down to the lower chain ring and then tighten the cable. Try shifting up again.
Bb is too wide for the crankset.
Did you service the bottom bracket? If it is a square taper bb, the axle might be installed the wrong way; happened to me once.
