Dual ended shifter cables
Hey,
I just purchased a set of cables with one Campagnolo compatible end and one Shimano end. Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but how do I remove the end I do not need? Thanks in advance,
George

I wasn't sure if cable cutters would leave the cable frayed or something, and unable to be fed through the shifter anchor pivot. I feel dumb now haha.

When you feed the cables through the outer, ensure that you do so with a circular twist in the same direction as the strands are twisted. If you want to be really safe you can put a touch of Superglue on the ends before inserting.
