'Think' I used 4mm on Shimano SP41 cable. Not sure how the SP41 stuff relates to XT outer. Not much help then!

that might be enough for me. I guess all Shimano outers will be the same.

probably guessed wrong though!

From what I remember, 4mm for gear cables, 5mm for brake cables.

It has been nearly 7 years since I worked there though 😮
