I've had a quick search but can't find any info.
Does anybody know whether a reverb stealth is compatible with a 2012 carbon zesty frame?
There is a blanking plug in the headtube and another under the top tube for a standard reverb, but can you use a stealth? Either through the top tube or BB and down tube?
Yes
they go in the front
down the tube
over the bb
and the seatpost
Thanks! So is that out of the hole in the downtube before the BB? Rather than through the BB shell itself?
Are the standard hoses usually long enough to route this way?
Standard hoses are massive, shouldn't be an issue unless it's a xxl 36er frame 🙂
The frame is a large, did a bit more digging and it appears you can't fit a stealth to a 2012 frame, only 2013.
no the stealth goes in never comes out of the frame, terminates on the bottom of the reverb
So there are holes in the BB shell to accommodate it? Just remove the BB and feed it through?
What about the spare hole thats blanked off in the headtube? Is it just a hole that I will be able to feed it through, or does this have an internal tube routing it along the top tube?
Finally, Is there a replacement blanking plug I can buy for the headtube that fits over the hose?
not holes so to speak its open but you have to remove the bb to get enough room to thread it up and through.
The internal routing on the top tube is for the non stealth style.
In the head tube if you remove the fork there are plates either side which the cables go behind to tidy them away.
yes you can buy the blanking plugs
Great cheers
