Default Barnett Cables. Should I buy them?

I'm changing up the look of my scoot a bit and I'm about to order a set of 1.25" 14" gangster apes. They are going to sit in there springer risers, which look just like their diamond riser. (but cost $35 bucks more. Go figure.)
To make it easier on myself I figured I'd add on a set cables provided by Carlini to the order. (actual length is a closely guarded secret but they tell me its appropriate.) The rep says they are Barnett Cables.
I have did some review searches on them and it seems that the JPcycle reviews are positive but some of the forum review are not so great
please give me some of your opinions on Barnett, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I've got them on my RK w/ Goodrich brake line, never an issue.The finish on them is perfect match.

Personally I like Magnum Shielding cables however Barnett cables are a quality product and a trusted brand name. If Carlini can provide you with the Proper Length cables it will save you the time and hassle of mounting the bars, taking measurements and placing another order for cables. Go for it.
