How do you deal with this?
I have a Diamondback Podium and both shifter cables come out under the BB. What I do is bend the last inch or so of the tip of the cables a little less than a 90 degree angle. When I push the cable through and it contacts the BB area I twist and push the cable and can fish it out pretty easy. I also do it on my frames with an internal rear brake cable. It's kind of hard to explain it but when you do it you'll see what I'm talking about.

But I prefer external routing.
