So it seems internal cable routing is here to stay. I love the aesthetic and inherent protection from the elements but doesn't it make maintenance a total pain?

    I think Giants designers need shooting! i thought the idea of updating was to make thing look and perform better! Well they ruined the looks and that top tube internal cabling it starts halfway down the top tube and comes out 6" further back! might aswell have not bothered!
