Hi
I recently bought a new 2nd hand bicycle .
I took it on a ride on friday. And during one of the jumps the cable housing got stuck in the cassete, which resulted in it being damaged.
After looking into the issue I realized that the cable + housing that connects to the derailleur is very long (a big loop) and there isn't much options to make it any shorter due to the design of the lx derailleur (see the attached picture).
Anyone had a similiar issue happen to them? Is there anything I can do to solve this since I don't want it to happen again.
Thanks in advance!
