"High rise" cable guides are indeed a thing:
https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/FSPXMRBBCG/selcof-high-rise-underbb-cable-guide#FSPXMRBBCG
Some of the Planet X frames (London Road, etc.) use them.
I've just cabled up the rear derailleur on this 1x build and the shifter cable is touching/rubbing the underside of the chain stay as it crosses over after exiting the cable guide (see pic). I've put a little patch of adhesive frame protector under there, but I guess it'll rub through that over time? Any suggestions on fixing this more properly? Shim under the cable guide maybe? Or are deeper cable guides which put the cable a bit further from the frame a thing?
