  • Cable clip ideas needed

    I need to fix 2 cables along the length of my downtube. I have no ‘braze-ons’ (mainly as it’s a carbon frame), and don’t really want to use tie-wraps around the tube.

    I’ve found self adhesive clips for single cables:

    but they’re too wide to place side by side and look a mess staggered.

    Does anyone know of a dual cable self adhesive solution?

    I be tempted to take a sharp knife to those & trim a side off each

    You could probably drill it and pop rivet some guides on, but you might not like the idea 🙂

    Thanks Brant, I’ll give that a go. Should I use rawl plugs?

    I had thought of that but I’d rather explore a proper solution rather than bodge it.

    Rohloff do some nice dual clips but they’re tie wrap (and aren’t long enough to go around the tube) and cost the earth.

    Scott use a nice neat solution at the bottle mounts.

    BearBack, no I don’t have those either. I do know the things you mean though as I have them on my Spark. They are good, like you say.
