I couldn't get much of a kink in the outer between the fork and the Calliper (see pic), is there supposed to be more cable between the bottom of the fork and the Calliper? Haven't given it a proper fiddle yet as I've got no locking rotors, but there's a fair bit of play in the lever when before the brake engages.
have got about 1.5mm of steerer above the step for the 5mm spacer, is that enough
Don't cut more. If the cap is recessed so far into the spacer that it hits the steerer, use more spacers rather than cutting the steerer even shorter. Or use one of my top caps#spam
I've explained poorly then. The issue is there's a 4mm gap between the top of the steerer and the top of the spacer.
Does that make sense?
Edit: the 5mm spacer above the stem*
Got the all clear from lynskey to wack the crown race on, and have made more progress with the bike. Quite nerve-wracking cutting the steerer, have got about 1.5mm of steerer above the step for the 5mm spacer, is that enough or should I redo and go lower?
Two more issues, do I install the chain before getting the dérailleurs cabled up? Or derailleurs first? All of the guides have either a chain on, or cables installed..
Had a bit of a faff with cutting front brake cable, I left the inside cable in when cutting the outer to length... Think I have some spare jagwire inners to make up the difference.
