Depends on useage on how much. I worked on an XT a couple of days ago that the 2 year phase of the warranty had just dropped off of and the cables were reading at 5 pounds. Spec is 10 + or - 1/2 pounds. Get them too tight and you are prone to more stretch over time, too loose and registration/noise etc, issues will surface.
