An adjusting device for cables, especially bicycle cables, used to control gears, brakes, derailleur gears and the like. The actuating cable consists of a guide bushing (5) and a traction cable and/or pressure cable (6). One end of the guide bushing (17) rests on an abutment (14) that can be displaced by means of a thread (9) in an adjusting bushing (3) in an axial direction of the traction cable or pressure cable in relation to part (1) of the cable inlet that is associated with the frame. A transition section (10) is provided between the adjusting bushing and the guide bushing. Said transition section surrounds the outer surface of the guide bushing and is sealed off from the outer surface of the guide bushing by means of a sealing lip (13). It is advantageous to use an adjusting bushing with a grip section and, selectively, a cable end cap with a grease deposit as a multfunctional component for securing the actuating cable to the frame section of a bicycle, whereby the traction cable and/or pressure cable can be regreased afterwards by exerting pressure on the transition section. |
