Cable buzzing sound on Look 695

[monre]

I have a terrible buzzing sound on my Look 695. I have established that its the internal gear cables actually rattling against its plastic outer cable as it runs through the down tube. I have tensioned the cable but it does not help.

Outer sheath from softer/quieter material.

Wonder where I can get some?

just replace the outer cable. It only has to be the same size. You don't even have to use cycle housing you can find plenty of plastic tubing in many sizes on ebay etc.

Can I ask, does rattle when your cables is most tense?
I would get the cable really tight " don't worry about gear shifting " and see if the rattle stops.
It seems a bit strange to me . it sound more like your housing is loose against your frame if your getting a buzzing sound.
I cant imagine you inner cable making a buzzing sound against outer cable.

I tried the tension but its definitely the inner cable vibrating against the outer plastic guide that runs through the frame.

Someone mentioned now that maybe I should cut the outer cable off where it enters the frame and just leave a small piece there as well as before it exits.

do the cables cross in the down tube?

You could try cutting, will make it more difficult to replace/change cable.
You could try pulling the cable out a bit. See if it still.rattles.
I would just replace the outer cable
should be easy enough using the inner as a guide
Another option is to try powercordz .
