Start by threading the rear derailleur cable through the entry port located on the nondrive side of the bicycle frame.
ROUTING 12 BOTTOM BRACKET CABLE GUIDE ROUTING BOTTOM BRACKET CABLE GUIDE Continue to insert the cable until the end can be seen through the single port found closest to the drive-side of the frame.

Locate the nylon bottom bracket cable guide and thread the cable through the opening shown in the photo above. The end of the cable will exit through the bottom bracket shell from the front port found on the non-drive side.
ROUTING BOTTOM BRACKET CABLE GUIDE While keeping the cable threaded from the previous step, insert the loose end back into the port it entered from, and out of the port found directly behind it. ROUTING BOTTOM BRACKET CABLE GUIDE Now the cable should be going through the bottom bracket guide twice, and through the frame once as shown above.
ROUTING BOTTOM BRACKET CABLE GUIDE GROMMET MAP CONT. Once each of the cables are properly threaded from the previous steps, you can now pull the slack from each of the cables. While you take the slack out of each cable, guide the bottom bracket cable guide into place until it sits flush with the frame. If properly routed, each cable should slide smoothly within the liner with little to no resistance.
