Default Apes and cables
I'm going with apes on my Deluxe Cholo build. This will be the first time going with Apes (14"). Where is the best place to buy cables?

Thanks in advance!

I've got magnum shielding +6" cables on my 14" apes and couldn't be happier.

Just did the bar swap on the wife's FB lo, very happy with magnum cables. Their ez align brake cable makes routing/aligning new cable a breeze.

Anyone know the difference between Magnum and Burley? Its looks like Burly is about $80 cheaper.

No experience with Burly, but I've got MS black pearl cables and am very happy with them.
