Hi all can you get semi integrated headsets ? As in seperate bar and stem but where the cables go into the headset ? It would be a Chinese carbon frame with 52mm or 1.5″ headtube cheers

You certainly can, although

You certainly can, although the only one I have any experience with is the stem & bars from the last generation Venge. The cables & hoses are inside the bars, and go under the stem and through the headset, fully internal, however you’re not limited to the Venge stem and Aerofly II bars, either can be swapped out for standard items, Specialized supplied alternative headset cappings to accommodate this. 

If at least one mainstream manufacturer has done it, there’s almost certainly third-party alternatives and copies out there.
