I wonder if I may call upon the collective knowledge.
I'm building a machine at the moment, that has a very small stem roller. This is key to the build, and I won't be changing it. However, I know from using one of these stems before, it kills front brake cables very quickly.... The only thing that worked really well, was a super-flexible "braided" front brake cable, like the old 2.0mm XT stuff, or what used to come OE on like 1991 Marins.
Does anyone have a source for a braided brake cable?
Super-stickler point is that I want standard 1.6mm, not 2.0mm, as I also want/need to be using the yellow housing I have for this particular project.
All shall become clear in due course!
In summary, 1.6mm braked brake cable, barrel nipple, where can I find some!?
All help appreciated!
