yo_scottie_oh OP , 14 days ago (edited 14 days ago) Look on the underside of the crank housing. Is there a plastic track for the cable to go around and point up? I'm not sure if I understand your question correctly, but here's what the cable fixing thingie looks like with and without the bolt. https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/9301afa2-a95c-44e2-bdbc-a91a98826c2b.jpeg https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/02855332-cab8-4e8a-9b40-df2b8d3d415f.jpeg Without the bolt, a vertical track for the cable to run through is visible left of the screw hole: https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/e5a29174-6746-40fb-af01-74e1769fd789.jpeg Operate the derailleur by hand to see which way it needs to be pulled, cable pills one way, spring pulls other way. When I pull the derailleur to the right by hand, the cable bolt moves upward - this means it's a top pull, yeah? https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/d8f25620-1ebd-4646-afe3-9064ed7597ef.gif Does this all mean that just running the cable straight down to the left of the bolt (the way I have it) might actually be the correct configuration?
