I reckon lucky you fixed it when you did.
My old 76er, the outer white plastic started coming off, and cracking/tearing. I didn't think much of it at the time, other than "oh, another things I'll have to replace"
but then the cable snapped on me! luckily i was in a carpark. So I caught a tram home, got a spare off a friend, and caught the tram back, fixed the cable in the middle of the carpark! (in hawthorn, which is a bit posh, boy did I get some looks! )
