Or maybe a better word is logistics.
I am at the "install clutch just under brake lever control". Yeah, right! Mine is a multi-speed mountain bike nothing like the pretty clean and unencumbered handlebar in the pix with my instructions. There is no way the clutch will be operable unless I maybe cut away a little strip of my existing handle bar grip (just wide enough for my clutch clamp). It is not ideal but at least I would have room to operate the clutch. otherwise the clutch would be way over toward the center of my handlebars - not an option.
Does anybody have a visual of what I am trying to relate and is cutting away part of my handle bar grip ok. The only problem i see would be cosmetic, but the cutaway would be filled with the mechanism of the clutch. I really don't see any other way to do it.
If I'm wrong, somebody please scream STOP to the top of your lungs before this time tomorrow.
