I painted my TT disc to look like a spoked wheel because it makes me chuckle when the birds and squirrels smash into it. I think that's what people mean by "that cool disc wheel sound."

a woodpecker finch? I think I just had one of those fly through my front tri-spoke unscathed!

I had to deal with that quite a bit with Klein frames a while back. You know those straws you get with a slushy that have the little spoon on the end (http://www.strawland.net/images/product4.jpg)? Stick one of those in the frame exit opening angled toward the cable and then poke around a bit with the cable. All you've got to do is hit the "spoon" part of the straw and the cable should ride right up the straw and out the frame.
The frame opening is probably a little too small for the straw (I'm assuming it's just big enough for cable housing?). If that's the case you might have to take an exacto knife and put a lengthwise slit in the straw so you can roll it on itself and make it smaller.
If that doesn't work, maybe a Woodpecker Finch can help you out....
