It's not strictly necessary but they wear through eventually and the extra work is minimal once you're already replacing the cable in the first place. I often like the results I get with liner taken from high quality housings more than the stuff that comes on bikes or is available standalone. | |

On externally-routed cables that go under the BB housing, the cable runs freely enough in the guide, and you'd think it would be cleaner on the inside so run nicer for longer. It sounds like we could have used just a little of the existing sleeve at the BB and got rid of the rest | |
