but my next step is probably enlarging the hole at the bottom of the bars with a drill!
Huh? Where do you recon the obstruction is? For me the problem isn’t the exit hole, it’s that the cable outer seems to get stuck halfway through the bars, approximately where the it passes the armrest bolts.
I still haven’t had another go because my new cables haven’t arrived yet.

I can’t seem to get anything more than the inner and teflon liner from Nokon cables in there, I’ve tried standard cable outers too.
I do suspect even if successful then the gap between the bars and the top of the break will be too small.
Re your hope that you can get away with a gap in the links I don’t think it’ll work, even a straight 3 link shortage in one attempt meant any corners further meant the cable couldn’t return so the brake stayed on!

Good luck, i relented at 2:30 am last night and just routed the cable completely outside, it’s unsightly and and i imagine not very aero but my next step is probably enlarging the hole at the bottom of the bars with a drill!
