  The idea of a spring plus the poor retention of USB-C just doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. Seems like these would just be a lot of cable coiled up to make a short cable.

    Wouldn’t they still fray near the end?

      I’ve bought some good quality ones of these and because the coil pulls on the connection it often causes a kink failure near the connector.

  I like guitar cables that coil like this, they don’t get tangled easily
