Abstract:
In a bicycle frame adapted for internal control cabling, the top and down tubes are fixed to parallel plates. The parallel plates are fixed to the head tube spacing the top and down tubes apart from the head tube allowing control cables to be routed internally through the steering tube of a front wheel fork, continuing between the parallel plates and through the top and down tubes. Handlebars and a bottom bracket housing are also provided assisting the internal routing of the cable.

Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     This invention relates to the many ways and shapes a bicycle cable may enter and exit openings through the inside tubes of the bicycle frame, handle stem and tubular bicycle frame. The invention of welding tube ends with tube ends remaining partly open or fully open allows a cable to go through a bicycle frame opening, allowing the cable to enter through the handlebar stem from the handlebar grip hand lever, through the handlebar stem continuing through the bicycle frame to scissoring brakes, allows a derailleur cable hand lever cable to commence from the steering head plate down between the steering head plate to enter a bicycle frame opening, continue to a rear wheel post exiting to a rear derailleur member of a derailleur wheel gear, and allows another cable to continue to the derailleur power pedal gear. 
     However with the advent of free style bicycling the need for greater versitility such as the necessity of being able to turn the fork and front wheel 180 degrees became apparent, free styling is not a form of bicycle acrobatics only. In order to utilize the rear brake, the cable, as it moves through the stem of the handle bar and the frame of the bicycle, is spaced therefrom to allow sufficient play so that on an almost 180 degree turn, the cable will not completely wrap around the stem, fork or frame. 
     Subsequently, hand brakes and derailleur cables were developed for use outside of the bicycle frame, with this advent of hand brakes and derailleur cables it is possible to apply brakes and derailleur cables to both front and rear wheels and derailleur rear wheel gears and power pedal gears with the cables entering and exiting the tube 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     It is the purpose of this invention to provide frame posts and a steering stem post with cable entry and exit openings. 
     The resulting assembly, even though relatively simple and inexpensive to produce as compared to prior assemblies of the same type, the entry and exit opening in the post of the bicycle makes the bicycle post simpler. 
     Many of the earlier bicycle frame types are undesirable because the brake and derailleur cables are too long and excess cable becom a problem. 
     Another object is to minimize the cable outside the bicycle frame. 
     Another object is shell post made for using lighter metal, making stronger frame posts. 
     Another object is welding the tube ends with the tube ends remaining partly open for entry and exit openings. 
     With the above and other objects in view, the present invention consists of the combination and arrangement of tube ends opening, hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes may be made in the form, size, proportions, and minor details of construction with out departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
