Modifying to allow for complete gear cable outer run
Discussion
As in another thread. Commuting daily is taking its toll on the bike. Namely shifting. Now the bike has a lot of exposed gear cable for the rear gears. Considering I essentially got the frame for £8 (cube peleton), once I split for parts.
Im extremely tempted to drill the gear cable stops and run a complete length. Any reason why I shouldn't?!

Prior to being based from home since Covid, I used to commute about 5k pa.
Plenty of exposed cable on the commuter Croix de Fer. I use Jagwire stainless steel inners on it, swapping them out once a year. Bought in bulk off ebay they're only a couple of £ each, probably changed the outers twice in 8yrs.
