Easy way to deal with that - move chain to biggest cog, then change down WITHOUT rotating the pedals - hey presto, nice slack cable to work with.HaloJ said:They'll likely be pretty tight especially as you'll be increasing the cable tension when you rotate them anti-clockwise.

This is what happened to my Allez - nothing would shift them. Not much of a problem really you can adjust the rear mech using the adjuster on that, but adjusting the front will be a bit more tricky.
