For some reason, back in 2021, I thought it a good idea to buy a £30 cable kit.. Giving bike a spring clean, found the fancy tin and thought I'd fit the cable. No instructions anywhere on/in the tin or the internet!
The highlighted soft rubber things are still in the tin...

Translates to "sealed end caps".. so supposed to go between the end of the orangey cable sleeve and the cable clamp?
Anyone else been mad enough to buy one of these kits and got a pic, or idea? 😀

IKR. And £30! What was going on in my head? Still, the orange bit looks quite perty.

you missed the word 'full'. (full SP41 Outer).

I also add a Middleburn cable oiler 3" from the shifter.
