Jagwire Yellow Cables

Just picked up a pair of them and put them on my Big Sur (in place of failing Ride-ons.) Got them
for cheaper than most plain cables, so I thought I'd give them a shot.

Anyone out there had any experience with them?

I have the Kevlar Jagwire(OEM) re-branded by GT, in the "weave" pattern on The Pig, and on the
Beer'Cross.

Both bikes have a full front-to-rear "cable-in-housing" run to prevent contamination. It's great
stuff, works flawlessly but is pricy (unless you can find the re-branded GT stuff on close-out
somewhere ;-) and it is TOUGH stuff.

Most of my bikes now have the same cable set, rebranded Giant. Looks great, especially since I
substituted the little ferrule nipples with the red tubing that came with Flak Jacket sets. These
cables I'm talking about are like the black, Teflon coated cables except they are another material
and are a dark yellow. They're slick as all get out.
