Optima Raptor - Front Derailleur cable installation   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2301 of 2457 |
Hi I have a new Optima Baron and need help as to how to install the
front derailleur cable.
At the moment I have it outside the boom.
However the boom has a hole in it at the steering stem end and an open
slot at the derailleur end.
When I tried routing the cable inside the boom, the turn out and up to
the derailleur stopper was just too tight for the cable.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as the bike supplier is on his
Christmas break.

Cheers
Brad
