Been having problems getting my front mec sorted. Starting to see why. Every video I watch on the subject shows there being a barrel adjuster for the front mec. Seeing as mine does not explains my difficulty fine tuning the cable tension to stop chain rub in the small cog large chain ring and small chain ring with large cog

Hi can I check for the cable adjuster should you start off by loosening the adjuster all the way and then clamp the cable based off that first?

When adjusting/tuning both rd and fd on a road bike, which one should you start on first?

I spent five hours trying to adjust my front derailleur yesterday. What should I do if my gear shifter goes from 1st to 3rd without stopping at 2nd? Thanks.
