I got the new cable sets with each of the chorus 12 groups that I bought recently. The rear shifting on my Colnago C-RS worked much better with the new cables.
I assume that eventually, the cables alone will become available as replacement parts. Right now, they only offer the CG-FRD700 set. The cheapest I've seen so far is about $88 from UK sellers. Colorado cyclist wants $100.
If you're not having a cable friction problem on the RD, they wouldn't be worth buying. I wonder how well Shimano optislick cables would compare. Of course the heads would have to be ground down to work.
