    Had these super expensive cables fitted to my Sunday best bike last spring(bike only used for racing/decent weather)

    Wheeled bike out today to pump tyres up and check over …

    Was out for few wet rides last year as you do but the brake cables now feel pretty stiff/notchy 🙁

    I will remove inners and give them a squirt of lube to see if just bit gummed up ? They were silky smooth new but did notice they were stiffening up towards end of season ..

    Anyway if new cables are needed what works for you folks ?

    Std Shimano works well for me, I use gear inners sometimes for even more smoothness.

    Nice one Al .. Was thinking the standard stuff will do the job just as well at a fraction off the cost 🙂

    Top tip on gear inner 😉
