About to grit my teeth and get the drill out...Frame is a MK1 Codeine 29er, I am just trying to work out best location to cut the hole...
Anyone here with a Codeine drilled it for a dropper? If so where exactly? I am thinking in the seat tube about 5-10 cm above the main pivot

What says STW?

Post up a pic if you can mate? So people might be able to give a clearer idea?

I drilled two 5mm holes then filed through with a round file, then filed in the direction of the cable hose and cleaned off with some fine grit.  The worst part of the job was cleaning the drilling swarf.
