Recently bought a specialized enduro comp 650b 2015 and want to fit a ir command post but can't figure out where the routing from the top tube goes anyone's help would be much appreciated Cheers Butty
Look just above the shock on the under sideof the "X" in the frame. There's a little opening. Is the post a stealth version? If it's stealth there should be a hole in the down tube for the cable.
There's a hole in the down tube chi see to the bottom bracket where the cable enters and goes up the seat tube. Cable runs down the underside of the down tube then into the frame. I checked an aluminum frame enduro today. Hope this, helps.
I have the 2014 Enduro Comp (29) and I believe they're the same frame 99.9% identical, if not 100%. I had the shop install my IR command post and because it was labeled "IR" I expected it to be internally routed the whole way. Turns out, that's not the case and the cable enters, if I remember correctly, at the same place the other cables on the down tube are secured with the little plastic/rubbery bracket. That path basically runs inside the frame just above the BB.

Ideally you'll want a new triple bat rubber base that is extended (E) to cover the opening where the cable enters the frame.
Hi that's what I thought the top tube hole confused me, I've took the bottom bat off and the hole is there and there's a spare slot on the bat for the cable so I will try fitting it this weekend !
Thank you very much for the info! I just had a shop tell me it was impossible to internally route with this frame.
Under the last rubber seat for the cable routing on the downtube, the one before the bb, there's a hole to go in the frame, issue I hit was bb could not clear cable...not without a hacksaw removing plastic anyways....lol
Old thread I'm aware, just figured I'd leave this here in case someone else needs it...

PJD1– I’ve got the same bike, and trying to figure out how to install a one up components v2 dropper... I removed the bottom rubber cable clip, and tried feeding the cable through the hole, but no luck. Would you mind explaining further how you got the cable into the hole and up the seat tube? I kinda got lost with the hacksaw. Thanks! Eric

I took the rubber insert back on that last cable mount and fed housing threw it into the bb with bb removed(kind of a mission use some mechanics wire and tape to get it pulled threw this section) and had to cut a slit into the bb's plastic to allow housing to run past it towards the rear then up the post. Also having extra housing is better.

Hi sorry guys I'm quite confused. I have a 2014 specialized enduro comp and a crank brothers Highline post. So where does the tubing go. Down the down tube then up to the dear post or through the X section of the frame? Thanks in advance.

The cable housing runs along the bottom of your downtube, in threw the LAST housing clip under the rubber there's a hole into the BB shell and up threw the seatpost... Srry about vid quality, 6a.m while making coffee..
Hey all, I found this thread and it was really helpful as I installed a OneUp 210mm dropper on my Enduro! Thanks to PJD1 for the video.
I did want to mention though, you don't have to go around the bottom bracket to route the cable. There is a hole that leads right from the seat tube into the down tube. So I just fed the cable down the seat tube, and you can see it go through the hole into the down tube, and then wiggled it around until I was able to grab it through the down-tube's opening (under the cable clamp).

No problem.
On a 2015 Enduro? I'll have to look for that hole that leads right into downtube. Only way I could see is the hole where the downtube meets the bb. I could have been missing something but not sure.
