Title: Smallest possible shifting cable barrel adjuster?
Post by: lantz on October 28, 2024, 05:48:46 PM
Need to add a barrel adjuster to an already cramped dual-action dropper post remote on drop bars and trying to avoid some bug clunky fuck of a thing.

Anyone got opinions?

Smallest ones I’ve seen are the pro mini’s from jagwire. Never used the before on a build though.

Good shit.

Insanely expensive for something so small, but alas, it is what it is, haha. Dropper post cost me like 120 used, the fucking lever and barrel adjuster will cost me 80 lol.

How? Are you buying a bougie (wolftooth/PNW) dropper lever? I've heard good things about the ztto or meroca ones on Ali if you're looking to save some cash.

I am installing on drop bars, so the dropper lever options are a little more limited for use in the hoods and on drops. I couldn't find an Ali alternative to the Wolf Tooth ReMote Dropper Bar lever (https://www.wolftoothcomponents.com/products/remote-drop-bar) - only other options in the same class were the enve, easton, cane creek and PRO versions - all similarly priced, haha.
