Ho are time trial brake cables routed?
Still trying to figure out how the brake cables on a time trial aero handlebar. If the cables are internally routed which seems logical since there are no clips or anything on the exterior of the handlebar to hold the housings in place, where do the cables enter the handlebar?
Thanks and cheers |

What I'm trying to figure out is how to get the cable and housing from the brake lever into the handlebar. The only way I can see doing that is to drill a hole in the handlebar near the brake lever. There are no entry holes on the handlebar at present. |

Their cables run under the handlebar tape. Won't that work for you? -- - Frank Krygowski |

It's a wing-type time trial handlebar and not a drop bar or drop bar brake levers. https://www.flickr.com/photos/738325...57716376903386 Cheers |

I would STRONGLY advise against drilling those particular bars. |
