2017 Specialized Epic HT shifter cable

[Ron]

Putting gears back on my bike for one of the NICA riders to try it out. The cable housing that goes from the shifter the the frame is the issue. When I insert it into the frame I can feel a stop in there. Then I set the bike up. But eventually the cable slides past the frame stop and cable goes slack. Is there a rubber stopper or something I am missing internal to the frame to prevent this from happening?

Thank you

I will have to try that. I tried the plastic one in the jagwire bag and those are too fat to fit in the hole.

Thank you @Patrick

Does it have a plastic cable guide under the BB with a housing stop in it? Pretty sure that gen runs housing all the way down into the BB like the Allez and Diverge.

So I got it figured out. Found a manual from Europe that showed a picture. There is an internal routing/guide built into the frame, only inside the frame. You drop the fork so you can see the guide to route the cable. Unfortunately I did not take a picture of it when I dropped the fork.

And the best part is in 2 weeks the NICA season is over and the bike goes back to being a singlespeed.
