Hey guys,.
a just bought a diatech hombre u brake as can be seen here(it's the gold one) but since recieving it, i have no idea how to put it on, im used to brakes like evolvers with a staddle cable but this doesnt seem to use one:confused: it lookslike the cable goes through one arm and i pressed into place by the other, but i cant seem to make this work. any help towards setting it up or where to put the cable etc will be much apreciated.
cheers

ok it threads through the hole in that barel thing on one arm. the end of the cable stops here, you will fin a little barel thing with like a spaner bit at one end and anothing at the other, there should be a hole in the middle of it thead the other end of the straddle the dosent have the lug and then get i think a 2mm allen and shove it down the spanner end and tighten it and put it in the other side.

yer i have hombres 2
sam pretty much told u everything exept if u want to adjust how they spring go grab a spanner and put it on the top of brake ( shuld be green) and put an allen key in iit (5 i think) now loosen the allen key and tighten the spanner .
by adjusting this it makes them more springy or sponngeeeee
but make sure u have the cable adusted properly before cutting it make sure they work 100% coz there is no gettin cable back after u have cut it
hope they work now
