Lapierre Sensium 100 Botoom Bracket Cable Guide
Hi,
Im looking for the lapierre bottom bracket cable guide. It has a special shape and can't find it anywhere.. maybe you people know where I can buy it or maybe how can I replace it. The thing is , I replaced it with another cable guide but the cable comes in contact with the frame , since the cable guide is shorter that the Lapierre one. Thanks

Hopefully you'll find the guide you want, but it's not a big deal if you don't.
The BB shell can act like a pulley for the area that touches, and the large radius will prevent any problems. If you're concerned about the paint (or for a CF shell) get hold of a piece of 0.005" (or so) stainless steel shim stock and trap it under the guide and leading around the contact zone.

Or get a piece of cable liner tubing and run the cable through it to protect the bottom bracket shell.
