Title: silicone/rubber grommets or blind plugs for use in frame
Post by: trailgazer on April 17, 2025, 03:25:25 PM
I'm looking for silicone plugs to put in the holes of the FD hanger mount. And front- and rear derailleur cable exits. Somebody who knows a place where to buys those?

Did you try to search the forum for 'plug'? I just did and it seemed to work.

I wound up buying some Ti set screws to fill my frame holes. They are more flush and weigh less. A tiny drop of threadlock and they will stay put and not fall out somewhere.

 Like the other person I got some ti bolts for the threaded holes and for the di2 holes I just put a color matched piece of tape. Electrical tape comes in a rainbow of colors.

 This is who I bought most of my ti bolts from and the tape can be had at a hardware store.

I used some ti bolt in my gravel bike to hide front derailleur bolt fixing holes, but I need to cover the cable routing. I use a zip tie but it's really ugly
