Headset cable routing pushing steering to one side

(1/2) > >>

jmullo:
Di2, so only brake hoses to route through the headset. Front brake hose exits the fork front of the steerer tube, so it doesn't really cause any steering force. Rear brake hose has to go around the steerer tube and some excess hose needs to be tucked into frame to allow full turning. There's limited space inside the frame for the excess hose, so the stiff hose always tends to push the handlebar to one side.

Any tips on how to avoid that?

PLA:
Why does the rear brake hose need to go around the steerer?

Drilling through would probably be a bad idea  ;D

carbonazza:
It is a road or gravel bike, right ?
Maybe you did put too much hose inside causing some spring force ?
There is no need that much as the rotation occurs on a small radius.

TidyDinosaur:
Have you tried it out on the road or only without riding it?
When I built my Hygge frame it had the same problem, but once on the road it was not noticeable...
