finishing up my 722ts build, just need to tape that bars and trim the cables. anyone know what the size of the top tube is and if anyone makes brake cable guides that'd fit it? or am i stuck with zipties? (removing back brake is not an option)

finished off my build this morning, had enough leather left over from the velo orange elk hide bar wraps(new color cortado, they match the honey brooks much better in real life than the photos, we'll see how they weather.) to replace the zipties holding the brake cable and leather the toe clips.
still on the fence about the headtube badge, but it's actually growing on me.
