REAR BRAKE

Run the hydraulic tubing from the rear brake lever to the lower slots in
the double housing stops on the left side of the down tube. Secure the
hydraulic line in the aluminum guides with the supplied plastic guide
clips. Then run the hydraulic line outside the vertical strut and under 
the clamp just above the swingarm pivot (see Fig. 6). The tubing 
should then be run directly to the rear brake, inside the seat stay.

FRONT DERAILLEUR

Run cable housing from the front shifter to the housing stop on the right
side of the downtube. Run exposed cable to the housing stop a the lower
end of the downtube. Run cable housing (approx. 32cm.) from this down-
tube stop, under the bottom bracket, and to the housing stop on the
swingarm just behind the rear suspension pivot. Be sure to leave enough
slack in this piece of housing to allow for the movement of the swingarm.
It is easiest to first position the housing into the stop on the swingarm,
and then to run the cable through the housing and out the hole towards
the front derailleur.
