Too much cable...

Post by voodoo_simon »

Just building up a new bike, think I've got a couple of feet of brake cable to trim off :x

Why do shimano insist on giving so much, I knew I should have got the shop to do it for me!

Oh well, at least the rest of the build is going well except I forgot to get a new middle ring and some chaining bolts :roll:

I prefer that, deffo get enough hose then, as you're always going to have to trim it anyway. Piece of piddle to trim the hoses with the right tools too ;)

Longer hoses can also be handy when strapping stuff to the bars.
