Will Yokozun Reaction cables work with Madone's 6 series internal Cable routing?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I've researched but could not find an answer. I asked the guys from competitive cycling but they were unsure and suggested I order them and returned them in case they did not work. I rather just know if the diameter of the cables will work with the inner tubes.
Any first hand experience.
Thanks.

NOTE: Brake housing is stiffer than normal housing. Set-ups that need tighter bends may not be possible with our brake housing.
Sounds less than ideal for todays hidden cables... routing under bar tape.

I have run it internal a few times but all on AeroCat Frames with no issue. Also on Specialized CruX frames as well...

Yeah, i'm not really concern about the under bar tape cables since I have a dura ace 7800 set up and the derailer cables will be exposed. The brake lines under the tape, well they would not really be tighter bends than normal, would they?
Just concerned about the diameter of the cable fitting the inner housing.
Thanks guys, i'll give them a try.
