Cabling a new bike
Hey Guys,
I am working on running my cabling on my new Specialized Awol and I am thoroughly confused... There is no cable stops for the front and rear derailleur when running the cable down the downtube on this frameset, there is just slots for ziptie-ing the cable housing to the frame. I'm not completely certain how I am supposed to run the derailleur cables when there is no way to stop the housing from moving with the cable when you try and shift the bike? Is there something I am missing here?
