replace rear break cable on a Shimano 105
Hi
Is it possible to replace the inner cable on a rear shimano 105 break, without removing the handle bar tape (Break cables runs under the handle bar tape)?
Thanks
Dan.

Yes. Sometimes it's a little tricky to thread the inner wire into the housing initially (at exit to the shift lever) but it usually goes fine.
