ABSTRACT:
A cable guide for a bicycle includes an annular monomerous mounting member having a substantially flat upper surface and a substantially flat lower surface. The mounting member includes a circular mounting opening, wherein the mounting opening has a diametrical axis that is parallel to a mounting plane. A cable support member is coupled to the mounting member between the upper surface and the lower surface, wherein the cable support member has a cable passage including a cable entry opening and a cable exit opening. The cable passage has a straight longitudinal axis passing through the cable entry opening and the cable exit opening such that the longitudinal axis is inclined less than approximately 45.degree. relative to the mounting plane. A diameter of the mounting opening along its entire length in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plane is greater than a diameter of the cable passage along its entire length in a direction of the longitudinal axis.
