Title: Adhesive cable guides-do they exist?  My fram
Post by: Scott on March 26, 2004, 02:05:00 pm

has  top routed cables that come across the seat mast area, I'd like something clean such as adhesive backed guides rather than clear wear guard decals.  Anyone seen such a part?

 I ordered a  Jag-Wire Mac Rattler cable set which included adhesive back cable guides. I believe Cambria bike sells the seperatly.

Adhesive cable guides do exist. They are made by Madison in tyhe UK and we sell them. They are very useful and use 3M adhesive pads.

We sell them in our shop www.ukbikestore.co.uk

my LBS put a few on my Oz when they built it and also on the fork to hold the disc line. i can press the cable/hose in and either let it be or secure it with a wee zip tie.  i think they are available in a lot of places.

As usual this site came through-Thanks!  BTW, that's a mighty fine site you have there Sprucey-if you don't have it, it's only because it isn't made.

Hi Scott,

Thanks for that.

We started the business three years ago and we have survived thus far and are now transforming into a mature and growing business. WE have a good reputation in the UK and becoming one of the recognised names for internet shopping. The site is basic but it works and we are opening accounts up with new suppliers and getting more products to sell all the time.

I am stil not rich but another three years of hard work will show some reward and justify the lifestyle change I made aged 40 when I gave up the day job, the suit and got divorced!

I got some of those at a shop, don't know what brand but they had 3M adhesive bits. They look neat and work but didn't last long on my bike, came off after a couple months so I'm back to zip ties which look crappy. Having said that nothing lasts very long on my bike!
