Current Projects chat and miscellany

My bike came with its inline adjusters fitted in the middle of the length of cable outer, I presume that is how they are supposed to be and why they are called "inline adjusters" rather than frame mounted barrel adjusters etc...

^^ Yep, I have the Jagwire ones. Bit crappy really, since they're so difficult to use, particularly in gloves. Mine don't have that nice grippy bit poking out the top and the main body doesn't have those lines to aid gripping either. So when I try to adjust anything, the whole unit just tends to spin.

Next time I come to recable that bike, I think I may have a bash with the ones that have a little wheel. They seem like they'd be more usable.

Thanks both, I appreciate the comments. I need to re-do this bit of cabling. I must have just mis-understood how it all goes together (to be fair they're part of a used groupset I bought).

To add to my embarrassment, I actually have these same things on my other Cannondale. Didn't notice until I'd set 'em up wrong, and posted on here. D'oh.
