The rear shifting on my SRAM Apex equipped Charge Filter winter bike has always been bobbins straight off the shop floor (it was heavily discounted sale bike) and I always just tolerated it. When I changed derailleur housing I always just cut it to the same size as was installed.
After the housing just split open at the barrel adjuster (nice!) I’ve actually looked at some videos and pics of how to install SRAM RDs and they all seem to have massive loops of housing and I think I may have spent 9 years replicating an install error straight out the factory.
