Hahaha!

I forgot why I left it so long initially. IIRC, it had to do with my concern the Duopar RD would not work well, and if I needed to swap out different RDs, I should leave extra cable until I found one which played nicely with this extreme gearing system.

Eventually I did switch back to Campagnolo and a freewheel with only a 32T large sprocket.


But while I had it set up with the mountain climbing gears, I apparently never bothered to snip and shorten the cable. Which can be seen still in this photo taken a month later.
