CABLE HOUSING SETUP The SB6c uses internally routed full length cable housing. By using full cable housing, we have eliminated break points in the line of your shifter housing. This allows riders to experience better overall shifting performance by reducing the entrance of unwanted elements such as sweat and sediment. By routing that housing internally we add to the protection form the elements and clean up the lines of the bike.

A worn allen key can round the hex on a bolt not allowing for proper torque. • Dead blow hammer • 2.5mm allen key • Two - 5mm allen keys • Two - 6mm allen keys • 10mm allen key • Guide pin tool • Lock ring pliers • Grease • Blue (248) Loctite • Pink (222) Loctite • Torque wrench Torque settings are listed throughout the instructions.
