Yes, I’ve tried installing compressionless housing and wiggled it around to the point that it’s started to fray and strip itself apart : (
So I’ve gone back to re-using the old (non compressionless) housing and it’s found its way through the frame with a lot less fuss. Maybe the fact that the compressionless stuff is so rigid makes it very hard for internal routing, not so good for my rear brake!

I gave up with compressionless housing in any bike with tight housing bends. I found it made my bike steer weird too, the bend to get it into the headtube cable stop was too much and it would split more often than regular housing

I’ve not had a compression-less housing being tricky on internal frames yet, what frame is it?

Tried putting the housing in from there, rather than out of there?
