ITM bar end brakes are snapping cables on the end, when under stress.
If this is happening regularly to new cables, I'd look for another cause than weak cables: burrs, routing, clamping etc, depending upon which end is effected.
Scilly.Suffolk-
It's popping the bulb off at the brake handle. I had the brakes on a different setup and it happened, swapped for Tektro and no further issues.
Friend is using these, happens sometimes, usually front brake first, under emergency stop stress. Two different bar/housing setups, plus mine is three.
Aesthetics over function, currently.

Are any brake cables stronger than others?
