Frame for belt drive + internal Alfine DI2 electric routing

Hi,

I am looking for a frame that would allow a Gates Carbon belt drive in combination with a Shimano Alfine DI2 rear hub with electric shifting.
Ideally the frame should allow the cable routing to be completely internal.
If someone has any suggestions besides the Somafab Wolverine that would be most welcome.

Thanks for your help.

The Co-Motion Cycles Divide maybe? Except I don't see the internal routing that you want.

Gates maintains a list of supporting bike brands on their website that might help.

Hi - did you ever find a frame to suit? I too am looking; unfortunately the Wolverine is incompatible.... :-(

+1 on Co-Motion! They can probably get you set up with some internal routing if absolutely needed or you might consider going even more custom and get exactly what you want.
