Not sure this will post given the current server issues but here goes.

I replaced my cable whilst dropping the pan and giving the strainer a good clean. Easy job with no issues and she seems to change much smoother now.

I want to play around with the tension on the cable but just want to know prior to messing around with it what to expect.

If I slacken of tension on the cable will it change quicker and more violently opposed to increasing tension and so hold onto the gear for longer and change smoother.

I am sure there is a sweet spot and i may just have it but would like for it to react just a little quicker and not have to push my foot as far down for it to change down at times.

I may be well off base and adjusting the cable will not give me what i am after but was keen to ask.
