You can buy a whole giant kit piece set of cables and sheaths, with end caps and rubber spacers, for like $30 bucks from china. I get mine, 20-30 at a time. I have a lot of bikes and a few MB. I actually use all the stuff I hoard. Saves time when something breaks, I just replace the part and move on with the day. The buy more when I remember or notice my stock is low. Why not buy a whole bunch now, and 2 years later when they cost twice as much, your good because you already have them. That works with anything, lol, even food!!!
