I can get the outer casing down the seat tube and around the corner a bit but not able to get it any further. Not sure where the outer casing should be going to get to the battery compartment hope someone can help me thanks in advance.

Any joy on this? I was thinking of getting my dad a dropper post for his 2019 Powerfly FS 5 for xmas. But I was thinking it might be a pain to route the cable. I don't really want to mess with taking the motor out. Maybe an external cable would be better. How did it work out for you?

I have not been able to figure out how to install it I was hoping someone on here could tell me how to install the dropper post. The internal routing is the way to go but as you say short of taking the motor out I can't figure out how to do it.

Hmm... Do you think the dropper lever would fit next to the display?

You will have to drop the motor to get the cable routed.

I’ll post a pic of my bars later showing the brake and dropper levers and the display if you want.
