  • Given the cost of replacing the fuckers it suddenly makes di2 look cheap.

    What cables would you suggesting to maintain shifting quality other than the fancy shimano ones?

  • Never go for the fancy shimano one.

    If you had used them in the past, and haven't change the housing, then it's quite likely the resin from those poo brown cable have been left inside the housing creating friction (ironic I know, but I've had customer bike returned due to this).

    Just make sure the cable housing end is cut neatly, and use this to ensure the cable is feed in at a good angle, (4th one from the left, the one with a really long housing).

    Ideally, you'd want to replace your cable regularly, not leave it until it start to get worse.

  • What cables would you use? I tried a cheap generic cable but performance was shit, so returned to the coated ones.

    Shifting with the proper cables is so slick,but they only last 4000 miles of urban (so lots of gear changes) cycling.
