Those seem to be very similar to Nokon which are super popular for people on TT bikes and those using SRAM shifters, due to how well they can wrap.
Nokon seem to be a quarter as much as the ones you are looking at though.

ceramic cable housing
has anyone used these or have any negative or positive things to say about them... i think outfitting my bike with these lines would double its value... or at least double the amount i have put into it
its like 200 dollars a meter...

I like the old GT MTB in the last image on their site. I reckon the housing is worth more than that bike.

This goes into the "high end bike stuff I will never buy" category.

i'd really be into this if they could do it with plastic or something, and without the outer sheath... just get a bunch of stackable plastic pieces that you could slip over a really low friction inner tube... it would be so useful... and you could make it rediculously colorful... someone start this company... it will succeed!

metal not plastic. that is what i was saying.

i'm thinking it could be like a nickel per piece at most though... it would be comparable to regular cable in price but it would wrap better, last longer, be prettier, easily adjustable in length, and probably about the same weight... that picture is pretty much exactly what i was thinking though
