Edit:  Please don’t e-mail Jagwire directly- they’re already being buried.  Just post below and they’ll have a sense for demand.

Found on Focus’ Raven 29r, this has to be the coolest cable housing at Interbike.  Even though the housing looks like plain aluminum, it’s flexy like standard shift housing.  Here’s what manufacturer Jagwire has to say:

there are currently no plans to bring this to the market.  I have seen this color in the past and in our stock room, so it does exist.  It was essentially normal housing with a chrome like finish and it was awesome.  Maybe if we can prove there is enough demand, they will bring the color back or make it available to the public…

So what do you say?  Should they make it available aftermarket?

It would be a nice compliment to a matte black frame, instead of red or white or maybe on a touring bike where chrome is still thriving tastefully.

I agree. That bling looks sweet! I can’t believe that Jagwire doesn’t want to do a production run of these when there are some truly hideous colors out there that they are already doing.

I’ve seen this colour before, on their Bender BMX brake kit, very cool! Would love to see this in Ripcord and HyFlow.

That would look awesome on retro builds or with new Campy aluminum components. I’d use it.
