Planning on running a rear mech, dropper post, and obviously a rear brake. Wondering how many c clips will be required

there's cable routing for 3 cables under the top bar (i'm sure there's a more technical name than that!)

2 on the non drive side, and 1 on the drive side.....

but, you could easily lash a dropper cable to the two on the non drive side and keep it neat as a third could "sit" in between the two existing cables if required...

of if you're going 1x then it's all gravy 8)

i've thought about this. a lot.

EDIT: having now properly read the OP ( 😳 ) there are 4 open guides, 2 on each side

I have 6 c clips on mine, 2 down the right side and 2 down each of the seat stays! The guides on the left side are doubles so I couldn't fit c clips and just used a zip tie to keep both cables in place! If you have a reverb the little hose connecting clips are very useful.

Hope that helps
