I've done my own cables & treated myself to having a pro do some as well. regardless, new cables offer significant peace of mind, especially if one can't remember the last time a bike's cables were done. also new cables & housings can provide better performance. I wouldn't change them immediately before a long ride because I have had to make adjustments over the duration of several rides to get them just right. another reason for having a pro do them
