Was having clogging issues so I thought I'd replace and get the mythically good capricorn tubes. This is a good sign that I needed to.

For bowden there is a benefit.

There is not. I can empirically prove it to you as well. Half of the 'capricorn' tubing you get from Amazon isn't even genuine - yet everyone there is clamoring on about how it made a difference.

Turns out, that confirmation bias and placebo effect share a lot of overlap. I get it, nobody wants to admit they've been bamboozled. But hey...stay critical of your observations.
