That's a good way to go--also cut the liner in half and put a rubber donut in 
the middle to cure the rattle another lister mentioned.

Subject: Re: [RBW] Protecting the top tube from brake cable


A length of cable housing liner and two "donuts" at either end works perfectly.

Do a search for "cable housing liner," and you'll find things like this:

That one is black...I've also seen it in white...

Dave, who uses liner for top tube brake cable routing and for under bottom 
bracket derailleur cable routing

Hi,



I went for the larger Hillborne size that fit me, and find that when I

come to a stop that my thigh rests squarely on the top tube and rear

brake cable, and am worried about eventual paint damage. I saw a photo

of a bike recently that had a plastic sleeve around the exposed brake

cable, and it was a silver-grey that pretty well matched the silver

grey cable housing Rivendell sells.



Anyone know what this stuff is called and where to get it?



Thanks,



Gernot Huber
