Post by: hokuspokus74 on May 09, 2014, 11:08 PM: hey laidback how you get the cable to come out off the wee hole at the back of the forks? :daumenhoch:

Post by: laidback on May 09, 2014, 11:50 PM: Remove stem/bars, feed it through from the hole in the fork first, then up through the steerer tube, then feed it through the stem bolt and up to the lever. Basically do it backwards.
