Cable setup
the 575 has full cable housing. By using full cable housing, we have eliminated break points in the line
of your shifter housing. this allows riders to experience better overall shifting performance by reducing
the entrance of unwanted elements such as sweat and sediment. Use of full cable housing helps prevent
corrosion from the elements and keeps the shifting smoother for a longer period of time.
Caution:
The failure to properly route shifter housing can cause malfunction of the shift mechanism and unexpected
shifting of gears.
rear Derailleur Fit the housing from the rear shifter across the
1
head tube and down the cable drop outs. there are three cable drop
outs groups on the non-drive side of the down tube to which the housing
and brake line can be attached. Fit the rear housing along the down tube
into the drop outs that are for the rear brakes.
the routing of the housing around the bottom bracket is a little tricky. the
shifter housing is looped over the bottom bracket shell and then passed
over to the drive side chainstay. the final stretch of rear derailleur housing
is attached using c-clips on the drive side chainstay and looped into the
derailleur.

across the head tube into the first cable stop on the drive side of the
top tube.
the cable runs parallel along the drive side of the down tube and then
slides into the cable guide under the bottom bracket shell. sometimes the
plastic guide from the front derailleur is oriented incorrectly. the cable
should run thru the long guide. this should be positioned on the drive side
of the bike closest to the crank. Make sure cable does not make contact
with frame.
rear brake the rear brake loops across the head tube and into
3
the cable drop outs on the non-drive side of the down tube. Use the
plastic c-clips to secure brake line to your frame. then the attached line is
to the open stops on the top of the non-drive chainstay. Make sure the line
is on the inside of the seatstay when attaching the caliper body.
note: this will prevent the brake line from being compromised if the bike
or rider falls.

hOusinG enD caPs Yeti recommends using metal end caps
to maintain the integrity of the housing. the metal caps do not
allow the cable to pull through as do the plastic versions. Do
not mix up the shift and brake housing because it will result
in a loss in performance.
