I have no idea where the front deralieur cable on a bicycle goes? |
my front deralieur on my bike isnt shifting and im guessing its the cable because its all loose. so where does the front deralieur cable belong? It belongs on the front derailleur. Trace it from the shifter on the left side, down the drop tube to the bottom bracket and then up to the front derailleur. Look for a nut that holds the end of the cable. There's several reasons it could be loose or not shifting well. Typically it routes down the downtube, under the bottom bracket and behind the seat tube so it pulls down on the actuator arm. But there are exceptions typically on ladies frames and some low price bikes. Here's a good site for visuals and how-to: http://www.jimlangley.net/wrench/ftderad... |
