I've snapped the cable to the cadence pickup of my computer. Pure, damned stupidity - I hadn't secured it well enough and it got loose enough to fall out from under the bottom bracket and catch a pedal when I was going for it down a hill.
It doesn't look too bad to solder, but where can I get a little bit of heat-shrink insulation to cover a soldered join?

Maplin sell it by the metre but if you tell me what you want and email me your address I'll bung a few inches in the post if I've got it.

Have a look in your Yellow Pages or online business directory for electronics subcontractors, and pop in to see them. If you lived anywhere near Weston-super-Mare, you would be able to pop in here and get a couple of inches!
