    What are people using on their mechanical discs on their new disc equipped cx/road bikes?

    I was just wondering as my cables are looking pretty tired and worn so will need replacing soon. Is there a super weather resistant option or just stick to stabdatd steel inners?

    I am using the Jagwire Road Pro XL. Has to be the XL kit, as the regular kit doesn’t have long enough brake outers to run a full length. Your bike won’t need this if it’s got interrupted runs. It’s also compressionless for whatever that’s worth.

    You can get the complete gear/brake cable kit for £32 from Amazon (Select N/A from the drop down and black/black should be the Road Pro XL).

    Std outer & stainless inners here, but I always track down metal ferules if I can.
    Boring but they have never given me any grief.
    I always use full length outers also.
