• Depending on your frame, it may be necessary to cut the rear brake
casing and install a casing lead end (not supplied in your Ergopower
control levers package).
WARNING!
Before cutting the casing, carefully check that the length you choose is
suitable for the size of your frame. Insufficient slack in the cable and casing
could affect your ability to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in an acci-
dent, personal injury or death.
WARNING!
After installation, check that the cables do not interfere with your steering
or any other function of your bicycle. Interference could affect your ability
to turn or control your bicycle, resulting in an accident, personal injury or
death.
NOTE
The casing must be cut so that the end
is perpendicular to the legth (Fig. 11). In
addition, the cross section of the casing
must not change. After cutting the casing,
check that you have restored its roun-
dness to ensure that there is no friction
between the cable and casing.
• Insert the end of the sheath into the
provided housing in the body of the
control (Fig. 12) Ensure that the sheath
rests perfectly on the bushing fixed on
the body.

• Attach the casing to the Ergopower
™
control lever as illustrated. The rear
derailleur (or front derailleur) casing
(A - Fig. 13) should be positioned in
the outer slot of the control unit; the
brake casing (B - Fig. 13) should be
positioned in the inner slot of the
Ergopower
control lever unit.
™
CAUTION
Position the cable so that it is as
straight as possible. At all costs
avoid kinks or sharp bends in the
housing (less than R = 50 mm)
• If you prefer, you can pass the derail-
leur cable casing alongside the brake
casing, as shown in figure 14.
2.1 - REAR DERAILLEUR CABLE AND CASING
Lift up the hood and push the
end of the 680 mm long, 4.1 mm
diameter housing into the hole
provided (Fig. 15).
Slightly bend the cable (for the
first 5 – 10 mm) (Fig. 15) to faci-
litate insertion of the same into
the sheath.
