    I have a frame that uses internal routing.

    I have decided to try routing the cables externally using frame mounts and p clips less for aesthetics more for kinder cable/house routing.

    The “thing” is that this will leave 5(?) holes needing plugging 🙄

    The manufacturer does stock spare bungs 😐 and have suggested I leave the open.

    That’s all fine and dandy but I would like to plug them.

    Any suggestions?

    Frame is a Giant BTW.

    I would use the brake and gear cables.

    Electrical tape? a sticker, silicone sealant.

    Orange sell plugs but no guarantee they’ll fit. If they’re round holes on flattish surfaces there’s likely to be household alternatives, a wee ebay search will probably find something

    Think I’d be tempted to use a tidily cut bit of tape tbh. But not a sticker because you might mistake it for a crack.

    Blanking grommets, often sold for electrical/electronic work. Try RS Components or Maplins, or maybe just google it.
