Maguras on a Klein?

[sylus]

Once you drill the frame..you might as well have a raleigh at resale

If you have to have mags then there are stick on cable guides that I've seen used on some paces before

jubilee clips....


just a thought.

Jeeees!.....yeah don't drill it!.....you wouldn't draw extra stick men on your Lowry now would you?!

It's not uknown to uze zip ties on cables fitted to bikes either

 

[Tazio]

A fiver on self adhesive hose guides. And they come with cable ties attached as well to make the hose even more secure. Waterproof as well so no dropping off during rides.

I just run my hose under the top tube with cableties. I later found a pack of different colour ones to custom colour match all the other bits. Its doesn't look very tidy but when I sell the frame the brakes I'm keeping. But my bike isn't a looker its a bit of a clunker that just gets ragged, if I wanted it to look as best I could make it, it would have to be some trick cantis or v's

Magura used to sell special parts that allowed you to use the normal cable stops to hold their lines. Perhaps you could get a few of those (if you can find them and if your frame doesn't have internal cabling) ?

^^

Can't use those as there are no cable sops on the frame - it's internal cable routing...

That's why I suggested the stick on cable guides in my first post...!

[At least the OP checked the link I posted before putting a response on the thread like some others...!]

Waddabout these Rohloff Jobbies? http://www.starbike.com/p/Rohloff-cable ... 00-2796-en
They're really glorified cable clips, but they look neat, you can remove and replace the hose, and there's a spare hole for accesories.
JE James or St John St sell them, amongst others.

I'm going to do the stick on cable guide thing like Boyburning suggested. I'll put them under the top tube so they're nice and hidden away.
The bike is for my partner who is a 55kg fly weight, plus the bike will only come out on nice dry sunny days, so I don't think the mags will give the frame any hassle.
