On the ST (or the RS with the SSSA) make sure the chain adjustment is 
using the bottom arc of the adjuster. Using the top arc eats up a lot 
of ground clearance, and I've found it adjusted that way a couple of 
times after getting the bike serviced. With the adjuster in the top 
arc, I've had problems dragging parts.
