hi, I have put new cables on my Shimano 600 Groupset wit downtube shifters. How do I best set these up?
That is: When the shifter is at right angels to the downtube it is pulling the cable the tightest and therefor moving the derailleur outwards (or inwards) pulling the chain to the smallest (or is it largest?) sprocket .
Or do I set up the opposite way wit the shifter relaxed, cable slackest and gear to largest sprocket then tweak from there.
The sames goes with the front derailleur.
Regards<br />
