Really shite rear shifting leads me to believe the cheap inners i bought are rubbish!
I have split outers on my heckler for the rear mech but are not averse to running a full length outer.
I want to spend <£20 and achieve slick shifting, is this possible? I need 3m of outer, 4 end caps, and 2 very smooth inner cables.
Point me in the right direction please
Middleburn cable oilers with cheap cables works fine for me (better than my old Goretex Rideon cables)
XT seem to be the way forward.
My second generation gore died recently in less than a year. Shame as the first generation ones lasted forever.
in a kit?
I've got XTR cables on my bike (interupted outers) and they're great. Oddly, [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=1597 ]at CRC[/url] they're cheaper than the XT kit. If you've got a PayPal account it's a great deal.
-- Edit -- the kit comes with interupted outers, not full length and the cheaper grey set is currently out of stock --
Expensive, but worth it.
absolute cycles on ebay - £19 for the XTR kit delivered.
mudlovers on merlin are really good
I use whatever inner is to hand and whatever outer the LBS has on a roll. I don't seem to have problems. What am I doing wrong so I can spend at least twice as much on some new cables?
rolls of that shimano outer. about £3 a metre. shimano inners about £1.50 if you buy a few. kits are just rubbish
