Cable guide for Raleigh Revenio carbon

Anyone have a source for the apparently proprietary cable guide that goes under the bottom bracket lug? Early 2010's Raleigh Revenio carbon

This is for my nephew's bike. From what he says the frame has internal cable routing and the guide is proprietary. Trying to post the photo he sent to me.

All I could find for pictures was an old Proscloset image.

I did find Cable Stops but I don't know what a "Cable Stops" might be and there is no image to be found for the name, GTIN, or part number.

For the price of a phone call, it's worth a try.
I assume you've tried Raleigh directly?

Best of luck

Thanks. I don't know what the nephew has tried. My attempts to contact Raleigh USA kept taking me to Kenya?! If I don't get any further responses here I'll suggest he kludge something.... I've already suggested he try teflon cable liners.

I do not see anything special about that guide, the generic ones mentioned should work just fine. Don't overthink this.

Comparing the photo with one that came with a Campagnolo bottom bracket I bought, the long leg is on the opposite side.

It can be remarkably difficult to find one that works well on frames that have a lot of mass at the BB. I went through the same thing, and was working with a cooperative frame manufacturer.
