Re:

Powster, you may be learning the hard way, but you post some of the clearest most illustrative photos on this forum, and that has to give anyone following in your footsteps a much easier time.

Keep up the good (?) work.

Re:

Becoming a bit of an epic this.

I have an old Shimano BB cable guide that allows about 1cm lateral movement. Guess SJS or
Ebay would have something like
it.

I guess mighty Raleigh went alone
and did there own non standard thing. Futile and needless, but they did it (nothing to stop you making another hole).

EDIT: You should be able to place some Teflon gear inner through the BB guide prior to the wire inner. Just sticks out each end by about 10cm or so. This will improve shifting and protect the cable from crap and cut down your maintenance.
