Hi all,
Having run Maverick forks for the last few years, I am slightly confused by the best way to route my front hose onto my RS Revalations. The bridge has some cable tie guides on it, but when I route the cable through these, it bows out as I assume this is designed for use with a left hand side front brake lever in a US stylee. At the moment, I have just routed it round the back of the lower section and avoided the bridge completely, but would be interested to hear what everyone else does.

I've always used Rockshox and used the cast in guides on the bridge, then inside the left leg. I find it minimises the scuffing, since everything from the guide downwards is static. The one time I did run it up the back and over the crown it rubbed the paint. I've seen it done both ways and people seem to live with both.
