    2. Replace cassette normally.
    3. Break chain and remove from derailleur.
    4. Size chain:
      1. Without threading through rear derailleur, place chain on largest cog and largest chainring.  
      2. Add or remove links such that chain is 2 links (one inch) longer than the minimum required to accommodate bib-big combination.
      3. Remove chain from chainring.

  1. Re-route chain through derailleur(s) and connect ends.
  2. Replace chain on chainring.
  3. Tanpan installation:
  1. Shift rear shifter to highest gear / smallest cog position.
  2. Remove shift cable from shifter and housing.
  3. Cut housing in desired location
  • Below the stem will provide good on-bike access to the barrel adjuster while reducing cable bend
  • Add housing end cap to shifter housing segment
  • Install barrel adjuster end of Tanpan (cable inlet) onto shifter housing segment
  • Install large end of ferrule onto “Wolf” end of Tanpan (cable outlet)
  • Ferrule is directional: must fit completely over Tanpan cable outlet as shown.
  • Remove 2-3in of housing as required to ensure free housing movement without tight bends or excess material.
  • Connect ferrule to derailleur housing end
  • No end cap is needed here.
  • Install new shift cable into shifter, route through cable housing, and through Tanpan barrel adjuster.
  • Use #0 screwdriver to back fixing screw out from Tanpan face
  • Without routing around pulley, feed cable under fixing screw head and through transition hole
  • Add a small bend to the end of the cable to ease feeding
  • Place cable on small Tanpan wheel and pull snug.  
  • Transition hole should be roughly 180 degrees from Wolf-end cable outlet.
  • Route free end of cable around large wheel and through Tanpan cable outlet.
  • Pull cable snug and rotate Tanpan wheel such that transition hole is again roughly 180 degrees from cable exit
  • Use #0 screwdriver to tighten fixing screw against cable.
  • Route cable through remaining Fasten cable in derailleur cable anchor normally
  1. If so equipped, re-engage clutch.
  2. Adjust derailleur limit screws, B-tension screw, and shifting normally.
  • Transition cable should not pass cable outlet in largest cog / lowest gear
  1. Trim cable to length and crimp end cap in place.
  2. Double-check all hardware and remove bicycle from workstand.

  1. After two rides, re-adjust shifting to accommodate housing compression and cable seating.
