I decided to tweak the indexing on my gears because its been playing up a bit. So I twiddled the cable tension on the rear dérailleur and had them working smoothly within 5 minutes.
With the front dérailleur, its took me 45 minutes and all that's happened is my fingers are blistered and the chain rings wont shift properly
I've played with all sorts of combinations of cable tension and H+L limits, but nothing.
So I've got a few questions:
1: The cable tension is completely off, how should I adjust it to 'start again'
2: The front shifter is a twist grip shifter, and when I twist it, it moves independently from the numbers beside it. So when it clicks it is not near any numbers.
3: Could this be a problem with the shifter and not the cable tension/limit screws?
Any help will be VERY VERY GRATEFULLY APPRECIATED!
