Cables

[xxnick1975]

Where do people buy their cables from these days?

Want to replace 30 year old brake and gear cables just to service and refresh the bike.

Have bought jagwire from eBay in the past but suspect they were fake!

Wow they are impressive, but a bit spendy, this is bike number 11, so doesn't get used much!

Also does anyone know where my really nice and really expensive Shimano cable cutters have got too!

I've stocked up on inners and outers from various places in the past, I think the last time was from planet X?

I get mine from Ali Express (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/328...store_pc_home.smartJustForYou_6001941774880.0) you do have to wait a month, but I just order in bulk so I have different colours to play with. Also great for cables and ends too, as log as you don't mind the wait....

bike no. 1 gives to bike no. 2 which gives to bike no. 3 etc. it's a pyarmid scheme that ensures bike no. 1 is always in good fettle.
