Re: Mega Shifter Problem
may be an unrelated prob, but the send like a 5ft cable which is way to f*in long, better off buying a shorter 3ft so you dont have to loop it, other than that i dont know

Re: Mega Shifter Problem
With regards to using a shorter cable:
We had a problem a few years back where the cable melted and broke. It was put in to a garage who "repaired" the cable making it shorter and routing it differntly. We lost 2 gears after this repair job.

Re: Mega Shifter Problem
