So, I am looking at the bike this AM; the criss-cross would, I'd think, require the cable routing go under the BB shell, and lots of bikes do. On this one, I have a clamp-on Campy housing stop where the DT shifters would have gone, and a clamp-on Campy guide at the lower end of the DT. The cables are parallel with the centerline of the DT all the way down -- I do not think Cris-cross would work in this application.

Regardless. bike about ready for a test ride and I'll see how the bar-cons fare.

Thanks, all, for the input!
