Nexus 7 - new cable

mr-asje · 12-12-2011, 06:26 PM

Can anybody offer some tips on how to install a new cable to my Nexus 7 speed? How do I know where on the cable to put the little bolt that locks into the gear changer mechanism on the side of the hub?

- thank you for pointing me to some very useful documents; I will surely save them for future tasks - although I'm not sure that they contain information on how to replace the gear cable?
