Other than cable ties on the top tube, are there any alternative ways for running V's on frames without a rear cable guide? Can I utilise the Dog collar?
 
i've drilled my dog collar slightly and run Nokon housing at the rear. works really nicely.

this is before the nokon - i have replaced the noodle with nokon as well

I saw this and it caught my eye as I'm looking to do the same...excuse my ignorance :oops: what is Nokon housing?
 
it's sectional aluminium cable housing. it makes a much smoother s-curve than regular housing in a short space that's required in this role
 
if it isnt dark when i get home i will take one. Nokon is pretty pricey, but i got some leftovers gratis from a very kind user on here
 
And I guess I could find another section to go to a good home as well!

Incidentally, there's a reduction grommet that fits into the dog collar and accepts a length of either normal outer or Nokon cable at the other end. It makes for a more secure interface. I got a few from Drapoon off here last year. I assumed you'd already have one cce - otherwise I could have included one with the Nokon.
 
i just drilled and chamfered the end of my dog collar - i have the 1996 collar which is a lot more metally around that part the cable runs through than the earlier ones
