Just a little sneak peek at some of the handmade goodness coming your way later this evening from the handmade bicycle show.  This is a very nice work-in-progress internal cable route on a bike from Winter Bicycles. Eric promises he’s working on some pretty sweet stuff…

Internal cable routing is proof that the framebuilder hates mechanics, haha.

1) Remove old housing, leave cable in frame
2) Cut new housing, use old cable as guide to insert new housing
3) Remove old cable
4) Cut new cable, use new housing as guide to insert new cable

Plus, all that friction! But it looks nice, I guess…

Hey Tyler- thanks for posting this! I just found it (a month late =)

Androo- as a bike mechanic myself I know what you mean- this is for full length housing and is easy-peesy to maintain. No 90’s Klein “shooting in the dark” routing here.
