    Can anyone tell me the difference between Shimano gear cables
    1: PTFE cables (I think they’re the black ones),
    2: SIL-TEC, or
    3: Optislick.

    I know they are all variations of Teflon. But which are the best? I believe they’ve changed the “polymer coating” between sip-tec and Optislick.
    I’ve got some of each and am wondering which to use. I’m sure I wont even know the difference, but I’m just interested. Can’t find any info via Google.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.
