Reddit reviews 1/4" PET Expandable Braided Sleeving- 10ft - Black

Use a fabric wrapped cord. You can simply replace the cord with a new fabric one from someplace like this:

Or, if you are not comfortable rewiring things, you can get fabric cord covers, or some that look kinda fabric like this one, but perhaps in a different color:

You can use a bit of electrical tape to add a nice clean end on the braided sleeving. I'm sure there are fabric versions somewhere that might look a little better.

No it's not.. It's a braided wire sleeve for the headphones/mic wires.. It does look like a cane, though.

Definitely listen to the suggestions here to untangle it, but to keep it untangled (I went through the same problem), I highly recommend putting this on the cable:

It's a bit of a pain, but it took less than half an hour to slip it on, and now the cable just straight up doesn't tangle.

Can put several cable in there, they are black and will even help with cable management.

this is what i went with for my headphones. they are absolutely amazing. then i popped a modmic onto them and used this for the wiring. best "gaming headset" ive ever had.

There is cheaper and more expensive options. but i really liked the aluminum frame, and open stage. its a sound like ive never had before. doesn't feel like my games audio are being injected into my ear, but more like im there.

I just got the ad500x, the cable is long, not the best but not NEARLY as bad as the complaints make it out to be. Im using mine with a modmic so I have TWO cables to deal with and I plan on sleeving them together. The modmic has a cable the same length which is good because they need to reach the back panel of my computer and I have a larger desk and like a little freedom to move around.

my thought is this, the point of headphones is sound, if the one drawback you see is a cable, youve made an excellent compromise. You can fix it with this: https://www.amazon.com/PET-Expandable-Braided-Sleeving-10ft/dp/B00ZATLUZ0 if you really want to.

edit-fyi these replaced my steelseries siberia 800 (so wireless to terrible cable lol) and are much cleaner and the soundstage exists(I thought the atmos was working but its clearly limited in closed headphones). Overwatch and bf1 have much more directionality, I pushed a little more low end through them and they sound relatively neutral(flat).

I use pas 99% of the time. Based on my use, a thumb throttle to give some extra boost on a steep climb works perfect, when riding the throttle full time twist is probably better.

I did not have a gear sensor, but installed one after breaking my chain 3 times in a week. (I shift a lot)

For battery you can't go wrong with a shark pack with good Samsung/Panasonic cells.

I use the "52v Mini 3amp Advanced Charger with 3 Position Toggle" from Luna. It works fine, a bit noisy though.

On an old bike buy the brake levers with cutoff sensor built in.

If your shift cables are running in grooves under the bottom bracket instead of cable housing you will need to buy a new shift cable + housing.

What you (probably) need as well:

• Crank puller (Just buy it, a bbs02 kit is not install and forget it.)
  
• BB removal tool (depends on the type, you can have your bike shop do this.)
  
• Depending on the type of pedals you need a special narrow key to remove them.
  
• Lots of zip ties
  
• A bunch of washers with 6mm hole to put between the motor and lock bracket
  
• Green Loctite (put on the bbs02 lock ring and crank bolts)
  
• Some rubber padding (old bike inner tube works) to put between frame and motor
  
• Dielectric grease (to make electric connections waterproof)
  
• Assorted Metric Hex keys (5mm, 6mm, 8mm)
  
• Small Philips head screwdriver.
  
• Optional cable sleeves
  
  

Small update: I was considering using some of this to sleeve the two cables together.

I'm not 100% sure if that will fix my issues or not but its cheap and i'm tempted

Heat shrink, why only pick one size?

If you're planning on using a lot of heat shrink it might be a good investment to get a heatgun, although a lighter works just fine.

A Helping Hand can be nice, but isn't needed.

You'll need to get a wire stripper or an x-acto knife and a careful hand. A hot glue gun is necessary IMO, it will protect and insulate your solder points as well as hold cables down IF you don't have zip ties. Also get zip ties. I made use of a wood file I had so I could smooth out some of the sharp carbon fiber edges on my frame, just don't breath in the fiber dust. I keep my quad in a backpack, my tool and extra parts are all in a box under my desk. Organization is not my strong suit.
