wow, why did it take so long to replace the cable? I thought you just have to unhook it from the pedal and pull it through?

I wouldnt prefer prying on the fork because sh*t can go flying. You should be able to loosen the adjuster on the cable enough to slide it over the fork and then tighten it back up.

Myn I needed a pry bar. I need to do a clutch pp and to change wen it gets warmer.(don't like workin in this weather unless im gettin paid lol or have no choice)Also if you need to put a spacer in or using the 1.6 you might need a pry bar.reason y it took me so long I had to wait for home depot to open because I didn't have anything withe the good amount of leverage I needed since I didn't bring my prybar thinkin the same thing that I wouldn't need one.thank god I broke down a block away from one.tried everything I could until they opened.11 dollar stanley fat max wrecking bar worked wonders.pry bars slip when you put too much pressure or don't position properly.you position securely and give ot the right amount of pressure prybars are your best friend
