Just a thought Rob! Thats 4mm gear cable outer casing ? Won't a larger brake cable inner cable jam or not thread through the 4mm outer casing ??
My French frame has a full length brazed in tube, so to me well with my frame the whole outer cable goes through[i hope]FINNEY1973":3w4n8zhr said:.This has got me thinking also - any possibility that the hidden tube on some frames can only accept the cable? Or is it generally accepted that they 'should' accept the outer cable as well? Not something that's documented or commented on much.

Mr Raleigh directed me here. I am a bit confused, my Van Tuyl and Look have hidden cables but the outers stop where they enter the frame. I am pretty sure that the Van Tuyl has some form of built in outer within the top tube. If you were threading the whole outer through the frame would you not end up with bit loops where it enters and leaves the frame?

p.s. i will look for pics

I have a hunch it's my frame and not the cable outers that are the issue.
As Richard has just suggested internal guides on some frames may differ to the norm?
