Hi
I have just got my lad a new orange crush frame. But the hydraulic brake cable guides seem to be alittle big. Does anybody no where I can get some cable pass through guides from as its proving tricky.
I have found some on ebay but are in the USA.
They are a tubular insert that holds the cable in place. Or is there anything else I could try?.
Cheers
Gordon

Bit of electrical tape
If you're talking about the horseshoe shaped clips, i'd normally bin them and use zip-ties (face the sharp ends inwards for safety), far more secure.
Do you mean these?

I bought some recently and could easily spare you some.
Yes scotroutes
They are exactly what I mean I would be happy to pay you for 4 if you have them spare and postage costs. Do you have paypal?.
Meh. PM me your address and I'll send some off to you. I wasn't expecting payment (I only needed two and I had to buy 30} but if you're feeling guilty then fire a couple of quid off to my local mountain rescue team

Or invest in some flush cuts, no sharp ends left over then.
All sorted now thanks guys I was after the ones in scotroutes reply.
Thanks for the advice.
It's bit late as it appears to have been sorted, but in the past I've found that aquarium air hose can be surprisingly effective (and very cheap).
