  • I am using SRAM, which needs an inline adjuster for the front mech (the rear mech has an adjuster on the body of the mech as per usual).

    This has been no problem in the past as I had inline adjusters at each downtube cable stop.

    I switched to using Alligator iLink cables, and that has rendered the inline adjusters useless- the iLinks rotate before the adjusters screw in or out.

    Has anyone encountered this and come up with an elegant solution?

    Dull update- for those people using segmented cable outer such as Nokon, Alligator iLink or SwissComp, the JagWire J2 seems to be the adjuster of choice:

    They don't require the housing to hold part of the adjuster still whilst you rotate the other part, therefore they don't simply rotate the cable outer when you try to adjust the cable tension. That's the theory anyway, I've not fitted them yet, but having a play with them supports my theory.
