The AS-R has full 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. Use of full cable housing helps prevent
corrosion from the elements and keeps the shifting smoother for a longer period of time.
Line Setup
setuP HOUSING
rear Derailleur Fit a piece of housing from the rear shifter across
the head tube into the first cable drop outs on non-drive side of the
top tube.
Take another piece of housing and secure it in the second stop on the non-
drive side of the top tube. Run the housing over the shock into the stop on
the drive side seatstay. Make sure there is enough housing so it does not
bind on the shock body.
The last piece of housing is run from the second stop on the drive side
seatstay into the rear derailleur. (Reference photographs for proper
routing/installation)
hOusinG enD CaPs Yeti recommends using metal end caps
to maintain the integrity of the housing. 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 route shifter housing can cause malfunction of the shift mechanism and unexpected
shifting of gears.
frOnt Derailleur Fit a piece of housing from the front shifter
across the head tube into the first cable stop on drive side of the top
tube.
Take another piece of housing and secure it in the second stop on the drive
side of the top tube. Run the housing across the shock , through the space
between the top of the dogbone and the underside of the top tube. Secure
the end of this housing in the stop placed on the seatube. Create an arcing
loop so the cable runs smoothly.
rear brake Run the brake line across the head tube to the first
open cable stop on the non-drive side of the top tube.
Run the line down along the shock body and into the first open cable stop
on the seatstay. Continue down into the second stop on the seatstay and
attach the line to the caliper.
