Only too long by about 8 inches 😂 jk, but anyways if you dont have the proper bicycle cable cutters too shorter your cable then take it too the lbs and ask for help. Doing it without the proper tools with fray your wires and ruin your cables

I don’t think those are too long but you might want to consider tying them up to the top tube near to the head tube. I have a two-into-one cable, and I like to tie the splitter to the top tube: about 5″ back from head tube will create a tighter cable bend than what you have while still providing a gentle enough bend to keep the inner cable from binding. FWIW, I like to use velcro cable wraps rather than zip ties, and I wrap them soft-side-in to reduce abrasion to the paint, and I regularly clean under them to minimize dirt buildup.

They’re good, the smoother the curve of the cables at the gyro, the smoother the brakes pull. Just tape them to the top tube if they’re bugging you or clanging around.
