Pulled tightly, yes that's prescicely what I'm envisaging. Maybe a small threaded boss, and a washer that's wider, wind the cable round, apply a little torque to grip.
There's absolutely no way these can be internal. The framebuilder hates it. And the tubes are tiny thin ones, like stays. It's a spaceframe so to speak.
Unless the wire is pulled tight, it's going to sag or be loose between whatever bosses you put on no?
I just drilled a hole in my downtube and brazed a stainless washer around the hole for reinforcement and it's been solid for a year
