A portable computer includes a base and a top pivotally mounted on the base by a hinged interconnection. A flex circuit is connected to an electrical device in the base and an electrical device in the top. A bobbin is mounted adjacent the hinged interconnection. The flex circuit is engaged with the bobbin and has a portion wrapped around the bobbin. The bobbin includes a core member and a removable cover member mounted on the core member. The cover member covers an exposed protruding edge of the flex circuit for limiting contact wear between the flex circuit and the exposed edge thereof.
