BIKE SET-UP TIPS AND TRICKS
Cable Routing
A Note on Routing
with Top Pull Derailleurs
We have made the Mojo HD3 and
the New Ripley compatible with
the new Shimano side swing front
derailleurs. Should you be retrofitting
an older style top pull derailleur
to either one of these frames, it is
possible and here’s the recommended
routing (Ripley shown, HD3 would be
done similarly).

A Note for UK/AU/NZ/ZA Folk
and Some Motorcycle Riders…
Your brake levers are most likely set up opposite
to the rest of the world i.e. front brake on the
right-hand side of the handlebars, and rear brake
on the left-hand side.
For you folks, we recommend you route the rear
brake line directly from the lever on the left-hand
side of the handlebar to the left side of the
down tube, attaching it using existing guides.
The line will have a slightly tighter radius than it
would otherwise but that is OK. Be sure to leave
sufficient line so the handlebars can rotate in the
event of a crash. If necessary, use clear adhesive
dots to prevent the line rubbing on the headtube.
Depending on the configuration of your bike,
a second more complicated option may be
possible if you’re not using either a front derailleur
or internally routed dropper post. Route the rear
brake line inside the down tube. The line enters
the frame at the port on the top right of the down
tube, and exits at the port on the lower left. Walk
this DIY path alone, and be prepared to bleed
your brakes after the cables are routed. You will
also need to use our hydro line port.
