Yes, you can cut it and make it fit. Like washing machine hose type stuff. Except nothing too crazily thick.Rubber Tubing?
or too much chainIf you have chain slap wearing through your brake cables then you either have an interesting problem or an interesting frame...
Not sure what you paid but it looks like it's just Mastic Tape.
that would be dough boy and myself.a buddy of mine sprayed bed liner on a plastic sheet so you can tear of strips of it and reapply it on the chain stay.
there are so many different types of sikaflex.. wich one do you use?!I use this stuff called sikaflex, it's like a marine glue type thing, it's really sticky, stays really soft, stays on all season, deadens all the chain slap noise. Although your brake cables shouldn't be on the side of the chainstay...right.
You can cover the rear mech cable housing with rubber tubing as mentioned before, an old camelbak drinking tube does the job pretty good.

i use cork tape sometimes too, but its hard to find in bike shopsThe jury is out on my use of road bar tape - maybe because I used cork tape....already poking holes through in 2 weekends of riding.

Thanks for that, just ordered a roll
How do you apply it in the frame? I can't imagine... Have you got any pics?this is the exact one, you can get it in a variety of colours as well.
hope this helps.
That's why I like the old Schwinn 10-speed stuff. Slightly stretchy and tough as nails. I snagged a couple rolls out of the bargain bin at the LBS on time.The jury is out on my use of road bar tape - maybe because I used cork tape....already poking holes through in 2 weekends of riding.

I bought the frame wrap this off season and used it on both my bikes. So far I love the stuff. It was easy to put on and seems to work well. It also bonds to itself so one of the times I had a rock scrape a hole in the covering (it did its job and protected the frame) and then I just cut another square and pressed it over the hole to patch it. I like this stuff.
Yep i just had to buy one roll to see what it was..Go to home depo or Lowes and pick up some Rubber Splicing tape.
Same thing as the Frame Wrap that is being sold online for a grip n a half.
You can get a roll of that (which will cover at least 2-3 chainstays) for under 3 bucks.
