Gore Ride-On Sealed cables- Any good?

[DirtyFrank]

I am considering upgrading my cables with the GORE Ride-on sealed cables. Does anyone on the hub have experience with these cables? Is it worth it at approx.R 750,00 (kit only)?

I currently run full cables which are fine but would prefer to fit the cables without cable-ties or drilling etc. It seems the Gore cables run a thin continuous inner sleeve which should allow the standard cable stops/retainers to be used ,this should be much neater.

I got some from CRC +12 months ago, use on my 'race' mtb which has seen a fair amount of action in varied conditions, and a lot of shifting. Cables / shifting still as smooth as the day I fitted them. There are those (here) that will say there are not worth the expense and cheaper to renewing standard cables and housing but must say I like them and going to be fitting a new set to my current Prophet project

I used them some years back and shifting was superbly slick. However, they also don't last forever and I went to standard fare and replace more often. Shifting is still great. Worth the money? Maybe. Worth trying anyway and making up your own mind.
