First, remove the rear shock eye bolt
and move the swingarm to its most
forward position. Then, remove one
set of bolts from the upper link.
(The forward ones where they attach
to the front triangle are easiest.)
At that point the rear caliper should
just fit through the space between
them and on back to its place on the
rear dropout. Keep the line between
the swingarm and the frame as short
as possible or it could get pinched by
the upper link bolt.
HD Cable Guard
We’ve designed a cable bash guard
to protect the cable housing along
the downtube from rocks. The guard
is optional, but should be used if you
are riding in areas where big rocks
might crush or slice the cable housing.
It’s available in the Ibis store on our
website or through your Ibis retailer.
You can also use this cable guard on
the Mojo and Mojo SL and SL-R.
On the Mojo and Mojo SL, you will
need to secure the upper end of the
guard, as the original Mojos do not
have the upper mounting bolt on the
down tube. We use double-stick tape
for this when mounting the guard on a
Mojo or Mojo SL.
Mojo / Mojo SL:
The derailleur housing and rear brake
hydraulic hose can be routed around
the opposite side of the stem.
The length of housing between the
rear top-tube stop and the upper
swing arm stop for the rear derailleur
should be kept as short as possible to
keep it from bowing out and contact-
ing your leg. We recommend you use
a piece of innertube about 3 cm long,
feeding the rear brake and derailleur
cables through it just behind the seat
tube as shown. Zip Ties work well too.
Cable Routing
Bike Set-Up Tips and Tricks
Cable Routing for Mojo HD and SL-R
It’s designed to run full housing to
the rear derailleur. This means that
the housing has no interruptions, and
runs as one continuous piece from the
shifter to the rear derailleur.
The top-tube cable stops work best
with front derailleur or adjustable
height seatpost cables. See page 10
for an illustration of the proper rear
derailleur cable routing. On the Mojo
HD, if you’re not going to be using
them, remove the cable stops and
screw the Allen head bolt back in
place for a clean look.
Rear Brake Hydraulic Hose Routing
for Mojo HD and SL-R
The easiest way to get the brake hose
between the main frame and swing-
arm is to feed it through when you dis-
connect the hose to cut down the lines.
If you do not have to cut down the line
the rear caliper
can
be fed between
the main frame and swingarm without
disconnecting the line. This saves hav-
ing to bleed the brake system.
