Customer Reviews

BBB BCB-96 Gear Adjuster is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 9.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Wonkyknee from Would not fit. The cable stops on the frame this was to be used on are unthreaded so I go these to allow adjustment, really for the front mech as rears have adjustment on the mechanism itself. Unfortunately, the diameter of these adjusters was such that the knurled collar you are meant to turn was tight against the frame so impossible to turn. Should work well as long as the frame cable stops are not close to the frame, but I imagine a lot of frames will have the same difficulty. I used a Shimano in-line cable adjuster in the end.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BikeLebowski from works well con downtube cable stops I upgraded my CAAD8 to shimano 105 and didn't have a barrel adjuster on my front derailuers shifter anymore because the cables are routed under the bar tape now. I wasn't sure if these would fit in the cable stops on the down tube because I'd seen other reviews saying that they didnt work. I bought these to give them a shot anyway and they work great. I can now make fine adjustments to get the trim settings just right. If you need to add a barrel adjuster and have non threaded cable stops on your downtube that fit standard gear cable feurrles these should do the trick.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Neilp91 from Not what I needed, but quality none the less I ordered these when building a Kinesis racelight as it has non-threaded cable guides on the headtube, thinking these were suitable. I have since come to realise these adjusters are for either fixing to STI levers (on ones where the cables exit near the top of the hoods) or for replacing adjusters on components. They were not sized correctly for the cable guides so instead I purchased in-line adjusters which seem to work well. Aside from that, the product appears well made and looks good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by shane78 from Make life easy for derailleur adjustment I purchased these as a new frame I purchased didn't have the traditional barrel adjusters. These replace them by slotting into the cable stops on the downtube. They fit well and are easy to adjust. They make the set up of derailleurs easier, especially if you don't have a cable puller to utilise. Also having hidden cables as per 5700, 6700, 7800 etc using an inline wasnt an option without making more cuts to the cable outer. Would recommend.

Q & A

Use on rear mech with no barrel adjuster?

Can this be used with a rear mech such as the Shimano XT M771 which has no barrel adjuster for the tension? Would it fit into the cable stop on the mech or would it have to be at the cable stop on the frame. I wanted to use down tube shifters with the M771 mech and need to adjust cable tension at the rear mech. I already bought the M771 and didn't notice the lack of adjuster so want to do it inline somehow.
Asked by: Bill1234
I'll answer my own question: this was the perfect solution for the Shimano XT M771 9 Speed Rear Derailleur having no adjuster - it fits right in the cable stop on this rear mech and provides good tension adjustment.

Will these work with brake cables?

I need a way to add adjusters to my Travel Agents, these would be a neater solution than using in-line adjusters - if they will accept brake cables.
Asked by: LawrenceOfWenlock
Unfortunately not, brake cable outers are 5mm, whereas gear cable outers are 4mm.

Can I fit these to the cable stop on the frame of a Giant TCR to adjust the front derailleur?

Asked by: Cannibal
I have a Giant TCR Advanced 1, 2010 model and these do NOT fit into the cable stops on the head tube. Tip: you don't really need front derailer cable adjusters for this bike. Once set properly it never goes out of adjustment anyway.

Can these be used at the rear derailleur end of the outer gear cable?

Asked by: Ecobezhig
No, they are non threaded. The rear mech barrel adjuster generally threads into the derailuer but these ones are designed to fit into the frames cable stops.

Will these fit a Specialized Allez Elite 2016?

I need to replace one of the downtube barrel adjusters on my bike which I have accidentally over-tightened, meaning it no longer locks into position. They look like they should work, however wanted to seek assurance before I buy. Thanks!
Asked by: ChrissyH86
These will be suitable for you.

Dimensions

What are the dimensions - will it fit an 8mm hole in the front of the frame for the front mech?
Asked by: Deva
Unfortunately the manufacturer doesn't list the dimensions, however we'd expect them to be suitable for you.

for Shimano XT rear mech

These are described as gear adjuster, but some answers say not suitable, though one person has fitted in this position. If these are not suitable, please advise product that is.
Asked by: ant55y
We would not advise fitting these directly to your rear mech. They should be used on your down tube.

difference between BBB BCB-93 and compatible with campagnolo?

What is the difference between this and the cheaper BBB BCB-93? can it be used with campagnolo cables?
Asked by: Seth11111
These are for non threaded cable stops, the BBB BCB-93 Gear Cable Adjusters are for threaded stops. The will be suitable for use with Campagnolo cables.
