I have a road bike with internal gear cables and running really light disc brakes externally, it works for me. My mountain bike is all external, but I keep the whole length of the gear cable covered and use velcro ties to hold them all to the frame as it was created for exposed wire gears and brakes, but has fluid disc brakes, much easier and simple to maintain. I would love a simple frame without the brackets I don't need for external routing.
@wayneproud28227 жыл бұрын
internal cabling comprises shifting, 11 speed has smaller increments so it gets amplified, now we have electric shifting to fix poor internal shifting. external shifting has a lot less friction for the derailleur spring to release the indexing, notice most top end italian bikes still use semi or full external shifting.

Poor internal cable routing design doesnt make internal cable routing bad, there are plenty of internally routed frames that are well designed and make setup a breeze. There are terrible externally routed frames too, routing on the top tube drives me nuts, always getting snagged on stuff and feels so awkward when you pick up the bike.
@victorh9407 жыл бұрын
I totally agree with you. I just bought a Cannondale synapse 105 and it has internal cables. I love the bike but I've already had cable issues only after two weeks of riding in the rain. The shift cable housings that came with the bike were of poor quality and started to rust. The brakes seem to be working fine. I pulled back the front derailier hood and tried to pull on the cable but it was stuck. I then took off the bottom plastic cover to look at the cables and noticed that the guide that goes under the bottom bracket to the front derailier broke in half which rendered the bike shiftless. ( I might have broken this when pulling on the cable with pliers to free it up) Your definitely right about rain and dirt getting into the frame. Where the cable come out of the frame above the bottom bracket to the front derailier there's a small hole but no rubber bushing. It's just waiting for water and dirt to pour into. So I did a little DYI and took a piece of shifter cable housing and installed it where the cable usually sits. I did some modification and it now goes up to the derailier, under the bottom bracket and up the down tube about 10 cm. I then calked the hole with silicone. It's shifting great now. Just make sure to get at least the Ultegra shift cable set, they are coated with a polymer coating and shift way way better then the standard set and seem way more rust proof. I am now working on sealing up all the other holes going into the frame. One benefit I do see with internal cable housing would be when mounting frame packs for endurance riding, the Velcro won't interfere with the external cables.

Agrees to certain extent. For some bike that manages the cable entry neatly, internal cabling is just awesome. And for semi internal routing, i want these 2 parts that is externally routed: Rear brake and the chain stay ! These 2 parts is very important to be routed externally, in order to ease up the work!

@jeffbrunton32917 жыл бұрын
Great video, good points. Internal cabling is sometimes just marketing, unless you are racing there is no significant benefit, only downside. On my internally cabled TT bikes, the extra maintenance is a real pain, so I would rather not bother. I have had to modify these internally cabled bikes to avoid dirt and poor shifting, a pain, and mine do not provide proper blanking grommets - it is poor design. Whereas it is easy to do on the external ones, even on CX bikes that have to deal with extreme mud and water. My vote goes to the Jagwire MTB cable set with the extended end caps with male female ends to eliminate any exposed shift / brake wire.

Indulonman Correct. I just purchased a 2017 Cannondale Quick4 with internal cables and it's near perfect.. They added some gaskets at the holes keeping the cables snug. Had a little rattle with the rear brake cable. The rear cable (along the top tube) is the only cable without these gaskets so it can move freely when turning the handlebars and sqweezing the brake lever. But a quick fix was me simply spinning or twisting i should say the cable housing with my fingers and it was gone. Or just shorten the rear brake cable housing about a half inch would also fix it. The bike mech when building your bike gives extra cable length on that particular cable probably for security reasons and or Cannondale spec code.

Couldn't agree more that internal cabling is a bad idea both in terms of reducing frame strength, providing entry point access for moisture, and increasing the complexity of replacing cables. The trick about joining the new internal cable to the old one so that as the old one is withdrawn the new one is installed is a good one. I haven't actually tried this but it occurs to me that one way of securely joining the two cables together might be to take a common cable end cap, cut off the closed end, insert the old cable into one and and crimp, insert the new cable into the other end and crimp, and then pull the old cable out and the new cable in.

I think some manufacturers build internal channels for the cables to both hold them in place, and make it easier to replace them (as easy as just pushing them thru). Also, I think it'd be exceptionally rare that anyone would ever apply the amount of torsional pressure it would require to exploit the holes in the frame. If this were an issue, the practice would be discontinued immediately. How long would consumers continue to pay for $2000+ frames that cracked because of internal cable routing? That's not to say I think less of external routing, I just think it all boils down to good design and personal preference. So many great bikes to choose from!

*Carbon structure I don't know whether you have faced forces affecting your bike but: 1. carbon fiber matrix - if processed well - is able to resist way more forces, than almost 99,99% of all riders can produce. 2. At the Head tube - where internal cables enter the frame - the forces are even smaller than at the bottom bracket. It makes NO difference whether the riders produced force encumbers 60% or 70% of the frame resistance capacity. 3.Some of the best and stiffest bikes use internal cable routing without any stiffness issues/problems. So why getting even more stiff frames (with external routing), if it makes NO difference at all? Saving another 17,46757g? Flawless in my opinion. *Installation Well, if there are no liners (anymore) in the frame its a slight pain. But with some experience, a vacuum cleaner and/or a magnet, its done in 5-10min. *look I think it is an objective argument, if I claim: internal routing is WAY more beautiful and clean. Resume: I see NO REASON AT ALL to external route ... *fork internal routing: well, that indeed looks stupid

When I was racing off road, we would pump light grease into the cable housings to prevent water getting into them. Some people removed the plastic sleeves from the SIS housings and installed a continuous sleeve that ran from one end to the other so the cable was completely protected in the areas where it exited the SIS housing (and they would also fill the entire thing with grease). Why did we go to such lengths? We had races where we would start with brand new cables and housings and by the end, they would all need replacement. Fortunately that didn’t happen too often. Gnarly, muddy conditions in Alaska racing. Internal cable routing is a bitch for practical mechanical needs when you’re having to constantly replace them. And trying to fish a cable through is a pain if you don’t take steps like attaching a string first so you can pull a new cable through the frame. I’m all in for external routing.

I have a Jamis carbon bike and just had problems with the front derailleur not downshifting to the smallest chainring. I removed the cover underneath the bottom bracket and found the problem. Dirt had filled the plastic guide and was preventing the cable from moving freely. I now have an additional service step for this bicycle. I can see no way of preventing dirt and water flowing down the vertical section of cable going from my front derailleur into the frame and settling in the bottom bracket without adding stiction. Something that will keep this bicycle from being one that is a practical, dependable bicycle. A shame because it is my lightest, fastest bicycle. An issue that would not exist if it had external routing.

Even with the magnetic based tools now available to assist internal cable routing is a time waster. The best development I've seen on this is true wireless drivetrains a la Etap.

There's one disadvantage for internal routing cables. Over some time when the oil in the internal routing cables runs out, the braking and gear shifting wont be as smooth, as there is only one route do the cable to move, most cable will rub against the housing causing the braking and shifting to be less smooth. So non-internal routing is good if you are lazy for maintenance as cables can freely move, housing too. So the cables wont rub against the inside of the housing that much meaning shifting and braking experience is better. However, internal cable routing is also great, if internal cable routing is properly made by manufacturer with water caps, its much sleek and nice. Just saying. So overall non-internal cable is good

Got to also add, I dislike lifting and handling my bike with piano strings scratching the paint, and to get tangle-up in, snagged (and the kids love to play and pull on them) its quite a bit easier to clean an internal routed cable bike. You can also see most of the cable outlets have been specially molded beyond the regular shape and dimensions of the carbon tube, there by giving abnormal strength to the areas. Some might be concerned with frame stiffness, but I myself, i'd rather have a flexible carbon frame for road vibration reduction. And yes, never drill carbon "fiber" as you will likely wont like the outcome. Now, leave me alone... I need to go fix my rattling internal cable issues ;-)

If you have the limits set correctly on the rear derailleur there is absolutely no point in it. Bikes come with them so that if they aren't set up properly that the chain does not get sucked into the spokes.

Some people are saying "ah, but the holes are moulded, so they are very strong", but the fact remains that a frame with a hole in it is weaker than a frame that doesn't. And sure, you're not likely to break the frame from sheer force of pedaling, but it only takes one shock impact to begin a crack.
