In an interesting coincidence, my Chrome XC cable covers showed up today. Here's a potato quality picture of them on the kitchen table.

Where did you order from? A couple of places I checked were selling it in 100ft+ lengths only. That's enough for the next 30 years of bike ownership.

I've found for situations like this that it can be easiest to just use your banks on-line bill-pay system

It gets a bit complicated since I'm halfway around the planet, but I did eventually use the online bank service to do it after the bank failed to do it right the first time.

Where did you order from?

Again, halfway around the planet... I got them directly from Techflex.nl

http://www.techflex.com/ondlrs.asp leads to http://www.wirecare.com/ might try there since they recommend it.

Love my ABS, . . . BUT also despise the birdnest series of complicated brake lines!

Yes, looks like they have a useful set of kits: http://www.wirecare.com/products.asp?prodline=dymc

Will be trying those.

Barnett sucks. Asked for +4 on throttle cables and +9 on clutch cable. They sent +2 and +7 respectively. I'm trying to use them. Throttle cables have no slack in them. Spengler brake cable was perfect.
