Hello everyone,
I am thinking about turning my semi integrated cable setting into a fully integrated one.
I have bought a second hand mechanical shifting groupset (Ultegra 11sp) + hydraulic disc braking to replace my former Ultegra 11sp with rim brake system. Then I may take the opportunity to fiddle around with cable integration. My frame is a CBT Italia Necer plus that can accept both rim or disc brakes.
The handle bar and cockpits that I use is Aliexpress Kovcelo that I think is well suited to run cable through them.
The fork doesn't have any hole to pass the cable housing of the disc brake through the cockpit, so I plan to purchase a new fork on Aliexpress (Kovcelo brand as well i reasonably cheap like 80€ vs a new cheap frame 500€)
The main drawback of my current frame is that I don't have the room to pass a shifting cable housing up to the FD, but I can at least pass a short length of housing down to the diagonal tube.
Here is a sketch of what I mean:

Regarding the space for passing cables, I have seen that Luke from TraceVelo youtube channel had achieved to pass all the 4 cable housings into a og-evkin cockpit without loss of shifting accuracy.
What do you think of that project, has it a reasonable chance to succeed? Have any of you already tried this kind of set-up?
Thanks
