Can anyone help me with the best way to route the remote lockout cable for an uppy downy seatpost on an 09 575. There are no dedicated cable mounts.

Currently it goes straight down the seat tube, under the BB shell and up the downtube tagged to the existing cabling but when I drop the saddle the excess cable bunches to one side and clips my leg

Any help welcome

I also have this irritation, whereas push button uppy downy seat thingies are without doubt the greatest wonder of the age and the best thing to happen to a bike since I climbed on one, crowds still gather whenever my finger hovers over the button but....

That annoying cable brushing against my perfect inner thigh, ruffling the creases in my 8 tracks, is not coowell.
