Jagwire - London Fixed-gear and Single-speed

Merak · 29th July 2008

I wondered if any one off here could tell me where I can get a hold of these, preferably in the uk?

There are loads in America but they cost $10 but $25 to ship!

I know its anal but I have a new bike and I don't want any frame rub ;)

fred · 29th July 2008

hehe, frame rub..

fred · 29th July 2008

do they have to be Jagwire (how anal are you being)?

gabes · 29th July 2008

where do you get frame rub?

I had expected a pasting :)

Dont have to be Jagwire but I would prefer some rubber ferrule of some description.

No' quite the same, but from the same manufacturer.

gabes · 29th July 2008

Where on the frame are you protecting?

it's what happens after ten pints of beer and lots of rare meat

briankwan · 29th July 2008

try the atationery shop opposite to john snow
but im not 100% sure they got it
get a big piece, cut into whatever size u want

Put those rubber washer thingies over your cables instead - neater and more permanent.

Momentum · 30th July 2008

Otherwise search ebay for helicopter tape - it's clear tape that's used to protect helicopter blades from damage (i.e. it's hardcore) and you can cut pieces to stick to your bike where the cables rub. Can also use it to protect the chainstay.

novocaine · 30th July 2008

wrap your whole bike in innertubes. that'll stop it getting rub marks. :P
sticky back plastic blue peter style hell yer

I've discovered this amazing roll of tape that i've found a million uses for, some kinky. I nicked it from our engineers, its for binding cables and such. Its like this non-sticky rubber strip, looks a bit like p*nct*re repair rubber but thin. When you stretch it a bit and wrap it on itself it bonds into a solid join. Its awesome. No messy gluey stuff.

Just thought i'd share.
