Clean up your build by making a quick Bike Cable Housing Connector. These are common to keep lines parallel particularly near the controls.

Create DIY Cable Guides

First trim off the smaller end of the ferrule.

Next run the zip tie through the ferrule around the first cable and back through the ferrule.

Loop around the second cable and close the zip tie.

Place the assembly to create clean, parallel lines and tighten. Trim the edge of the zip tie and you’re done.

We find this setup provides more grip for improved look, spacing as well as less noise from cable slap.
