Now you have said "Boardman" I can see it quite clearly, before it was just squiggles. Nice colour.wilberforce said:

Does that mean you like riding around roundabouts?robertbruce1983 said:Loving the oil slick parts
Shouldn’t that cable/hose go around the bottom bracket or has it been cut too short?

In all the photos I have seen of the MTR 8.x bikes the hose is routed as shown in robertbruce1983's (i.e. above the bb shell).Charlie_Croker said:

That is how it goes. If you look you’ll see a little guide channel designed into the frame to take it over the top of the BB cups. It’s designed to stop it getting broken if something hits the underneath of the BB ( rock, ledge, tree root etc.) it’s quite a neat idea.JBA said:
