Hydro lines through bars....ugghh...

[oldguy00]

Thanks for all the replies!


ANYWAY, I think I was just being a dumbass....the hole that I was having trouble getting the hose to angle into, I'm assuming that was more meant for DI2 wires? There is a earlier hole/channel for the hose to come out of closer to the center of the bars and be recessed into a channel that leads up towards the lever, which most/all will be covered by tape. See pic. I was trying to put the hose inside all the way to that hole by the drops/curve.

Looks like your personal assessment was correct! Hydro hose should come out of the closer to the center of the bars hole and then run down the recess to the lever! Argh moment for sure.

This is one of those jobs that is a lot easier the second time.

Definitely! Been 'wrenching' my own bikes for 30 years, but its always a learning process! I did manage to get all the hydraulics working on my tri bike (Felt IA) but this is my first time setting them up on a road bike.

Setting up my dogma disk was a nightmare; setting up my time adhx was a whole lot easier in large measure due to my experience with the pina. Hope you get the new bike running soon!
