Black cables. And ditch the white saddle, too. (Odd angle to my eye as well). Very much niceness apart from that!

Your garden sucks, by the way.

They appear to line up perfectly with the logos. Have a gold star. 🙂

Yeah but that one's got the XTR spangly bits 😆

White grips would compliment the white saddle and balance it out a bit, as it stands the saddle looks like a bit of an afterthought
