I had the same problem on my Atlantis. I got a plastic cable guide, filed
off the BB ridges and drilled & tapped a small mounting hole for the
guide. No more cables falling out of the channels. BTW, that plastic
stuff looks like heat shrink tubing. It never stayed in the guides but

I tend to favor shorter stays for climbing on singletrack. My weight stays
over the wheel better and I don't spin out like I do with longer says.

Bleriots were made with metal shifter cable guide channels that are molded
into the bb shell.
They are not the bolt on kind.
My Bleriot was originally built up with some plastic tubing that lays onto
the guide channels. But sometimes I find they have popped out, and the
cables and tubes run out

*that* long, there may have been some slight compromise in handling. But
nothing significant. And it was a joy to ride with rear panniers mounted,
Richard Sachs has for decades built his frames with chainstays longer than the
norm, and I don’t hear anybody complaining about the way the handle. The longer
stays on my Sachs make it more comfortable to ride, but they don’t make the
handling any less lively or precise.

That very downhill was the reason I bought the Krampus. I wanted more
rubber on those bumpy downhills. I'm way happier descending stuff like
that with lovely 3" tires.

SKS have the least obtrusive hardware, so they will maximize clearance compared
to most.
The P65 will clear a 559 Super Moto, which has the same diameter as 584x48.

Interesting post. I heard tell that Jobst would tell the builder, "Don't
cut anything off of the stays." At any rate, I *tend* to agree with Grant

experience, such as it is, makes me so tend.
