Where can I find these cable guide inserts!
So my Cannondale F600 that has cable guides on the top tube. The braze on guides are oversized and require the plastic insert to hold the brake cable in place. I need one that is lost - looks just like the pic. Has a lip and a closed end. Can't seem to find replacements!

hello
If you're talking about ferrule you can find them anywhere.

this would be the ferrule that the cable end ferrule would fit into - a larger unit that would fit into the frame eyelet guide.

Try airbomb.com.
They sell all sorts of little frame parts that might break off from time to time. I got some cable stops from them.
Make sure and call in your order, so you don't get charged the default $8 shipping for a tiny envelope with 2oz. of parts in it.

"Hydro cable"? Oooooh! 
I have all sorts of weird crap in my tool box that would probably fit, and any decent shop should have 10x times that at least.
What is this world coming to..?
