Yep, built for the British slop.

Couldn't run full length outer on mine unless i've completely missed something. The top tube has a full run for clipping the brake hose in, then the other mounts are for split outers unless you drill them out.

I've had two of the 456's, one was the mk1 in "that blue" with the closed brake hose runs which was a pain in the ass as you had to take the calliper off and run the hose through. I then had one of the "new colour" ones in pink, both of these were only able to full length outers.

But you could still go with Gore RideOn if your budget stretches. Worth it for me, although YMMV.

Arrghh, I had the original that blue 456 which indeed had full lenght cable outers.

I though Ton was referring to the C456 which I now own which does not have support full length cable outers.
