    I dont want 1x advise by the way, take that as a given that front mechs are dead, but i still want one OK.

    I cant see how to route the cable so that i can get a cable end on and it doesnt mash up the big ring. Its a 3x setup and it works fine but looks a mess and cable end being unwound is probably a bad thing. Cotic Solaris if it is relevant.

    Dont know why picture isnt working either.

    Just cut it about 2cm left after the clamp bolt and bend it towards the frame slightly.

    I was being dim i think its an m781, i’ve wrapped it around the bolt now so sticks out to the rear.

    I route my the cable to the other side, put a small zip tie around the mech clamp bolt and catch it in there. Solaris owner too.
