LOL So does she get to drive it already???

Just as added info - Jagwire makes rubber bumpers that go over the cables for this type of application. Problem is - I`ve only seen them in black and you might end up with `scuff marks` on that white frame.

Anyway -I`d say take them off if they bug you. If at some point you change your mind, clear protective film is available, but I`ve personally used electrical tape for those applications on CF bikes. Its actually available in yellow, blue, red and white as well as basic black. If you`re good with a pair of sissors you can get perfectly rounded corners.
