Bottom Bracket Cable Question (have a photo?)
My second 760 frame and fork just came back from the painter and the cable guide is gone. This is on the bottom of the bottom bracket and I believe it will be made of plastic. There are 2 screw holes appx. 35mm apart.
Can you have a look at your 760 (or any 1985 or so Trek) and either snap and post a photo, or just describe what it looks like? There are 2 'paths' (not sure what to call them) in the BB already for the cables to nest in, so maybe just a piece of square plastic with 2 holes drilled could do the trick Thx in advance.
