AS-X has full cable housing. Putting full cable housing helps prevent corrosion from the elements and thus
keeps the shifting smoother for a longer period of time.

HOUSING
housinG end Caps
Yeti recommends using metal end
caps. The metal caps do not allow the cable to pull through
as do the plastic versions. Do not mix up the shift and brake
housing because it will result in a loss in performance.
Caution:
The failure to properly routing shifter housing can cause malfunction of the shift mechanism and
unexpected shifting of gears.
rear derailleur
Start by getting a long piece of housing ready. Fit
the housing from the rear shifter down to the first open cable stop on
the drive side of the downtube.
There are two more open cable stops on the drive side of the down tube to
which the housing should be attached. Fit rear housing line along the down
tube into these stops. We recommend using the plastic clips.
Next attach the line to the open stops on the underside of the chainstay as
shown. Feed the line through the small hole on the dropout and then loop
the housing into the rear derailleur..
front derailleur
Fit a piece of housing from the front shifter
across the head tube into the first closed cable stop on drive side of
the top tube.
The wire cable then runs parallel along the drive side of the down tube and
then slides in the cable guide on the underside of the bottom bracket shell.
The cable is then attached to the front derailleur..
rear brake
The rear brake loops across the head tube and into the
first open cable stop on the down tube. The line is the run along the
downtube in the second and third open cable stops.
Then the line is then attached to the stops on the underside of the
chainstay. At this point the brake line is swung to the inside of the chainstay
and looped up to the caliper body.
