macmark:
Can anyone post up some detailed pics of the cable routing for the above please? From levers down to each brake if possible, or point me in the direction of some kind of install guide.

I've just got one of the cheap 06 Haro Sports and haven't a clue where all the cables and bits are supposed to go. :-\

Many Thanks. :daumenhoch:

pickle:
here you go mark.....not great pictures as they're off my phone.

macmark:
Nice one mate. :daumenhoch:

On the one I'm doing now the front cable after it comes out under the forks and loops up around to feed in the brake has like an 8 inch loop sticking out the side. Is that right? Looks a bit dodgy, almost as if I'll catch the cable on some old dears shopping trolly as she overtakes me. Also there's a plastic doodat in a bag that I assume goes on the seatpost upright of the frame to guide the rear cables in to the brake? The rear brake is on the lower chainstays on this bike.

Thanks again.

pickle:
you're right about the loop.....sounds a little large!  but they're a bigger to cut mate!

as for the rear? not sure on that plastic part?  my rear brake is on the seat stays not the chain ones......do you not have a welded on lug with three holes in it on the frame?  the two lower cables should screw into that....maybe the plastic bit is incase you only have one hole?  is it called a 'london mod' or something? 

macmark:
Dunno mate, still working on the front brake. :LolLolLolLol:

I forgot how hard it was to adjust your brakes without one of those third hand gadgets to hold the brakes together! Just tried holding the excess cable in my teeth while I reached for the spanner and my hand holding the brakes to the rim slipped and the cable pulled through my teeth! :shocked: I solved the big loop problem though. I just pulled the cable back up through the stem bolt a bit. ::)

Just got to tighten up the front somehow a bit first then I'll tackle the rear.

Haven't had this much fun in years. >:D
