hope someone can help....I'm going to replace a frayed inner rear gear cable on a Vitus Energie CX bike and before I make a lot of work for myself by doing it arse about tit does anyone know if the outer casing which enters in the downtube and exits from the chainstay is one complete piece from the shifter to the derailleur or is the casing in sections as most bikes seem to have?

Mine goes in the toptube and exits in the chainstay.
Just release the cable and jank the outer a bit, see if it moves all together. Usually the casing goes to the DT and restarts in the curve of the RD, don't you have some guides with naked cables under the BB?

Thanks, but wanted to know if that particular model had a one piece of outer casing for the rear mech instead of two

In answer to my first enquiry and for future reference the Vitus Energie gear and brake outer casings are one piece, just feed the new inner cable in the shifters and it will exit at the furthest end (no bottom bracket removal)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
