[Closed] Internal cables on a Lapierre Zesty carbon?

If I were to pull the cable out of the internal routing holes in a carbon zesty frame, would it be a struggle to feed them back through? Thinking about going 1x9 but don't want to go past 'the point of no return?

I've known other frames with internal guides, not just holes at each end of a tube.

Anyone know?

Cotton thread + vaccuum cleaner is the old trick if there's no internal guides and it doesn't poke through easily

Sounds like a good back up....I spent hours with an old Klein trying to feed through cables. The Titus FTM I had seemed to have some kind of internal routing.

Hoping that Lapierre would have been similarly intelligent??

Can anyone confirm before I'm up a creek with only a relatively small paddle?? ๐Ÿ˜‰

I thought I'd never do this but *bump* for the evening crowd...
