4. Cable routing and axle plate alignment
The alignment of the axle plate relies upon how the shifter cables are routed. The axle plate can be rotated in steps of
30° to find the optimum position for cable routing.
An optimum cable routing requires:
- less bending of the shifter cables
- the most direct route
- no kinks in the cables and housings
The following are examples of suitable cable routings. Of course, it is possible to select an alternative routing. To
achive this, however, the axle plate must be aligned accordingly.
