Do 'AM' gear cable sets exist ?

Since moving up to 720mm bars, I've noticed the gear cables seem a bit short.
My gear cable set is 'straight out the box XTR' and not trimmed down.
Obviously I can just by a roll of gear outer and make my own, but it'd be nice to get a full set again.
Does anyone make anything to fit wider bars ?

huh?
I've always had to trim down cables to fit. just buy some outers, inners, and sort it out.0 -
Wow, I thought this was going to be another piss take post...
I am with yee, the bike I rid is probably the largest you have ever seen, and I run wide bars, but still had to cut down.
XTR might just be short.
try another inner.Why would I care about 150g of bike weight, I just ate 400g of cookies while reading this?0 -
I know what he means.... sort of...
the packs of xt cables/outers aren't long enough for my meta...
Just buy a length of outer an resize yourself!0 -
Cheers Guys...
Yes, it may have sounded like a daft question - I agree.
But I do have a roll of cable outer, it's just that as I'll have to get new inners if I put longer outers on, it may just be easier to buy a ready made kit.
If kits such as XT/XTR are a bit short, maybe there's a Saint kit designed for DH bikes ?0 -
nope. DH dont really want too wide a bar.
and many run full length outers and many dont have cable stops in the correct places to allow for a standard pack."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
