Question about internal cable routing
I am completely overhauling a tandem. It does have internal cable routing for front and rear derailleurs. It also has cable guides to keep the cable for contacting the frame at the rear bottom bracket. BUT is does not have any type of cable guide that I can see that prevents the shifting cables from coming in contact with the frame at the front bottom bracket. When I install new shifting cables should I use some cable housing that will extend from the rear bottom bracket cable guides going forward just past the front bottom bracket?

Love to see a picture of the bike and what you are experiencing. Would some of the inter wire housing work as it is much smaller and would help eliminate rubbing?
