I’m building up a new steel frame and I need a BB shell cable guide that is a push fit with a little nub in the back rather than a screw. There is a hole in the frame but its not threaded.

After much googling I still can’t locate one…..any ideas people

Ah Ceeway, it’s Columbus tubing so that might be a good option – cheers

yeah tapping is an option, I haven’t measured the hole but it looks about 4mm dia so should be fine. I found the one you linked to but can’t find anywhere in stock.

It’s annoying as I had one of the push fit guides in my sapares box until I had a clear out a couple of months ago
