• Is Jagwire CEX cable "compressionless"?
    Iv'e found it for sale described as;
    Coiled Steel, non-lubed quality, low-cost brake housing using coiled Steel wrapped around an inner non-lubed liner. The combination of low cost and long-lasting performance makes the Jagwire CEX Brake Cable Housing ideal for entry-level bike service -Housing Construction: CEX low-compression housing.

    I suspect it isn't - it's on a CX with Avid BB7's.

  • Coiled Steel

    There's your answer, not compresionless.

    Compressionless will be woven or linear shrouded.

  • Get Yokozuna Reaction, the Jagwire work well (noticeable improvement over conventional housing), but it's not a true compressionless system.

  • Housing Construction: CEX low-compression housing.

    There it is, low compression housing translate "normal" housing.
