That depends very much on whether the cables go under or over the bottom bracket. While most modern bikes go under, many older bikes have over-bracket braze-ons (and many more used clamp-on guides that put the cable on top).
If one uses the standard chrome side of the tube stops instead of that aluminum monstrosity it serves both types of routing okay - but you may have an issue with bottle cages. It's easy enough to figure out, though.
