I’m going to get some new prime carbon gravel bars which have internal cable routing to replace stock bars.
Shifting is wireless so it’s just the brake cables I need to sort. I’m trying to figure out if I can do this myself or get a shop to do it. If I disconnect the hoses from the levers, route internally and reconnect, assuming I dont have to shorten the cables then what are the chances I need to re-bleed? Would I get away without? I’ve not had sram before so don’t have the bleed kit (also not a fan of messing with dot5 fluid)
Cheers

I wouldn’t disconnect & reconnect without bleeding afterwards. You’ll always lose at least a drip or two of fluid (or the whole reservoir) which will introduce air.
Squeeze the pads in, disconnect, then push apart when reconnected. Might get away with it. I have.
I'm about to do something similar when my new frame gets off the boat.
I'd say no chance looking at this
