Risers fitted but.....

[newman7096]

I've re routed the brake lines and relevant cables but now the brake lines seem to rub on various parts.

What do you suggest I use to protect from damage?

Can you get something you can slip over the cables?

By the way risers are superb.....very comfy.

risers

I used a couple of lengths of clear plastic tubing (the type used for brake bleeding) about 6 inches long and sliced through one side along it's length. Just feed them over the brake pipes. Maybe need a bit of tape around here and there to keep them in place. I also put some black tape on the yoke but this came unstuck. Ended up using some sticky velcro, this seems to be staying put (and it's nice and soft)

That sounds ideal! Clear tubing. I should be able to get that from the local aquatic shop around the corner.

Thanks
