Noticed on eBay people have started selling reproduction Cannondale replacement cable guides. Apparently, they are being made by this person on a 3D printer:

Cannondale Replacement Cable Guides

Anyone try using these yet? A bit disappointed they aren't "lock in place" that they have to be epoxied in place instead. Still better than no option at all. Maybe they'll perfect the design.

Thinking of redoing some of my vintage 'dale bikes. Wanted to see the feedback from anyone using these.

mtnbke, I installed three onto my beater 03/2014 and they're still doing fine. I used the least appropriate method I could think of, just a couple of dabs of super glue, before possibly using rivits. The front cable guide has the most 'action' from the cable housing moving around and I fully expected a possible failure with it before any of the others. As of now there are no trouble indications.

If you have any of the OEM A113s with pins, I'd use it on the front and the reproductions for the other two.

Bikes: A green one, "Ragleigh," or something.

I'm another success story; the Shapeways 3D printed ones worked great for me on a bike I'm building for my brother in law.

The nubs just happened to be a perfect press fit (super snug - I had to be very careful not to bend/break them as I tapped them in with a padded punch) and they aren't going to pop out unless they get a strong enough tug to break them, I think. Had the holes on my top tube been larger or smaller, it would either be too tight or too loose.

$18 shipped for three in white plastic, now I have two original black spares for my keeper bike (No, you can't have them.)
