It'll work OK either way, but by going to the outside it'll last WAY longer

+1 Routing on the outside is a straighter run for the cable, less bends less friction. Clean & Lubed with Marine white lithium grease every time front wheel comes off and put a little o-ring at bottom of cable to keep moisture out & should last well over 100,000 mi..
