Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

add on cable guides

Does anyone know where to find some nice ones for my IRO FG/SS group buy frameset? I'd rather not use zip-ties or chrome Campagnolo style guides. Is there a style that is bonded on?

What other kind are there? I've seen plastic ones but they're still in the vintage (campy) "style".

I'm using some made by Jagwire they are stick on alloy cable guides with c clips. they come in black or silver they also come in a nylon version but I think I might get the alloy silver ones and try to match the blue paint so I can paint them for a semi factory look.They run, for the alloy ones, about $11, for a set of 3, you can find them at Bikeparts.com or just do a google on Jagwire cable guides.
