• I did some cabling and stuff.

    Bad news is that

    a) I'm sure the bars are at the wrong angle, wrong reach, wrong hood mount point, wrong everything. This is my first time and I'm learning by doing, ok?

    b) I can't make the front mech work at all. Whilst trying to make it work I think I pulled too hard on the lever shifter and now it is all weird and the cable stop has disappeared into the hood and I can't get the cable out and I am pretty sure I fucked it. Off to the shop tomorrow.

  • Have only just caught up with this thread.
    I can see you repeating many errors I have made previously, premature taping, cutting cables too short etc.

    I see others have mentioned clamping by top tube, and thank fuck those blue tyres have gone.
