"The 5 holds the derailleur in line with the 7th cog (21t) and the 6 aligns with the 8th (27t).* This is necessary because the cable will be attached after this process is complete,"
I don’t understand this. You use a hex to hold the derailleur in the middle of the cassette and **then Attach the cable?**
How does this not make the derailleur cable way too tight? I’m missing something here.
Never mind I just watched the SRAM set up video. I think setting up with the Allen key installed is setting what seems like b tension on other set ups. Then you let the derailleur shift to the 10 and then install the cable and housing as per normal.
I don’t set up as being much easier than other set ups other than limit screws. Just different.
