Trek Control Freak Zippity-doo-dad for routing bike internal cables

thingiverse

Hook tool designed for gathering shift and brake housings when dealing with Trek's Control Freak internal cable routing, also useful for other brands' internal routing systems. To utilize this tool, push all the housing and hoses to one side, then insert the hook through the ziptie access hole and guide the housing and hoses into it. Once in place, push the ziptie into the slot on the handle where it will wrap around the housing/hoses and emerge at the end of the hook. After securing everything, remove the tool and tighten the ziptie. This hook tool was based on a 3D printed design created by Trek's service team members. David from Trek Bikes in Chattanooga provided photos and dimensions of their version, which unfortunately broke during use. This redesigned version aims to address the issues he encountered with the original Trek model. However, this is still considered a work in progress as I'm awaiting feedback from David to ensure it meets his expectations. Due to its current status, files may be updated based on his input. Preliminary tests suggest it works well, but further validation would come from an experienced bike mechanic.
