'Cross Cable Routing

[Plum Hill]

Setting up a new 'cross bike with TT cable routing and Campy brifters.

It appears the best routing would have the shift cables go around the front of the HT, run down the TT, then cross over at the seat post area.

Agreed?

Pics would be helpful.

I think it kinda depends on how you are running things, the length/rise/position of the stem&bars as well as how the cable stops are positioned on the top tube.

Also, if you are reversing your brakes as well (a good idea for cx regardless!).

I personally don't like crossed cables as they will probably wear faster...

Show us what you are working with and I might have some suggestions. :D
