First question that comes to mind: how to get the barrel adjusters in place? I see the 'congrats' letter points to Jagwire, but I don't see anything on the site...the other part of the question is: with Campy.

Take the cable all the way out of the head tube lugs, and screw in the barrel adjusters, and rethread the cable and readjust the derailures. As I said, most new bike builds don't include these, as they are really not used much if at all. I think I have them on my bike, but I think it was a fit issue rather than a functionality issue. The barrel adjusters seems to fit the head tube lug better than the alternative.

Only the front could need fine tuning after the cables stretch. My other Calfee has 2 and I've not used the rear. The new person knows a great deal more and only used one. Post Extras: Pages: 1
