Outside for me Nick. Tie it down and it looks fine mate. Don't go too short on the cable or you get 'binding inside' and it doesn't pull the caliper properly.

It doesn't rub on the spokes either if it comes loose  :daumenhoch:

If you go inside then you don't need to tie it down with ugly tape/cable ties as it pushes outwards against the fork leg anyway.  I've never known a cable move into the spokes.

In. I find a stock cable flexes out when you endo. Ties help, but inside fork works and looks nicer.

I must agree with Dordy, I never saw anybody with it inside bitd, but the overwhelming consensus is inside.
It does look little odd inside but it doesn't rub on the decal. Which is nice.

Cheers chaps, inside it is :daumenhoch:

Has the kettle boiled yet?




Oh there it is!

That just looks like it will restrict loads of movement!
And Mach One forks as well.

I do love that colour.
