That's what I have been using for the last couple of years, the silicone coated insulation variety - love the stuff. But.... sooner or later, that will look like a ****'s Angel's hair hanging out from under his helmet after a 4 hr ride! They tangle pretty easy.
Somebody shared their suggestion on how to keep the tangling to a minimum where this type of box dispenser is used - with a stick running through the spools. Danged if I can find it again, but sure wish I could.
How about it, anyone remember that post?
Many years as a licensed electrician has taught me to never let the tension off the spools. As soon as that happens the spool looks like a slinky after a bad fall down the stairs.
