Thanks for your video. I did something similar for my Tyee. I added an extra zip ties on the chainstay ports to force the cables to run straight away from the tires. I then adjusted the plastic cable holder with thinker zip ties & used electric tape to keep the plastic cable holder in place, so that it doesn’t slide around on rough trails. I appreciate your video & message to Propain. The Tyee is a great bike. I love it. I just worry about the cables every now & then.
Revel has this design. I'm not sure why they can't design the frame a different way to not have exposed lines or at least develop a separator to make it look cleaner.
From what I gather, Revel make some decent bikes. I think that the under bb cable routing may not be the best, but it is not a deal breaker. I am sure that your Revel will benefit from a similar sort of fix. Thanks for commenting, and happy biking.
hi and nice solution on the problem. i know the video is a few weeks old.. have you tried the improved version already? im thinking about trying something similar using my 3rd printer as a more permanent solution
If you have a 3D printer, do it. The modified design works well, but needs to be pulled back into place after every ride. No problems with cables going into the tyre.
Thanks for your video.

Just need to do the same for my wife's bike now 🙂
