    Just exhausted my own stock. They were always black (which I thought was the coating).
    The ones on crc are silver. Have I picked the wrong ones?

    Just fitted some, they were bronzey. That’s the super slippery ones made from PTFE and eel skins.

    IIRC only the XTR ones have been black for a while. the non-XTR are clear / silvery tinted.

    I was going to suggest the XTR inner & outer kit that CRC had for sale last year, £12 for everything (inners / outers / sealed ferrules, the lot), but can’t see them on there now. 🙁
    Glad I got a couple of sets now.

    The gold’y coloured ones ‘may’ be the Ultegra cables…work a treat and smooth as F.
