I've no idea (I had to click on the link to find out what you were talking about) but try SJS they sell some of the more unusual stuff.

If you have an LBS that has been around for long enough they will have some floating about in the parts draw.

Not a recent shop - an old shop.

??? that links shows them at £1.25 each, just how cheap do you think they should be? A pair of Rohloff cable tie style cable clips are nearly £5, you can pay £15+ for Problem Solver clamp on versions.

10 cable guides 18 months ago, what are you doing with them?

 

[biggs682]

most bikes have 3 each , so as i do afew bikes up you can use 3 at a time

Actually the OP's link to ebay is 2 for £1.25, 10 for the princely sum of £7.55 incl p&p. Ehhhhh Thomas how much money are you hoping us to help you save?

Yeah I figured but, as RecordAceFromNew says, just how much can you feasibly save, you've already shown me a link for these things far cheaper than I thought existed!!!!

Depends on what you're doing up, but the ones you linked to look cheap and nasty, I'd use them if I didn't have to live/ride the outcome but I'd spend a few quid more if I did....if you know what I mean
