On my commute this morning at the 5 mile mark my front gear cable snapped (right at the point it joins the derailleur), I tweaked the line of the derailleur in order for me to use 7 out of the 8 rear gears and did the last 12 miles in 30t granny ring on my triple.
I have a cable at home already and can't be done faffing around in the bike shed for an hour fitting a new cable on my lunch break.
Is there a simple way for me to get it into the middle ring and stay there for the trip home?
(and splitting the chain to remove the derailleur is also too much like hard work!)
