Quite a few of the semi internal routed (not through bar/stem/headset) bikes I've worked on don't have full length outer, outer weighs more than bare cable and we can't have that can we. There's stops in the holes in the frame and a guide at the BB like normal, just inside. Making a simple job...
But that's a Force 40+, so called because it forces you to swear 40+ times when you're setting it up!
Actually the one example of a brake rocker that once set up properly makes a difference. It's all in the cam. Which the others don't have and I agree are pointless. 👍 😁
:)
I have one, it's a nice bike, well built and rides well. For some reason they fly under the radar though. Which is good in a way cos they're cheap. 👍 😁
Every time I see a Ribble I'm hit with a sudden urge to change the R to a W.
The rear box thing, combined with a saddle with a pressure relief cut out, means you don't have to stop for a shit.
