My theory is that the teeny tiny cable opening in the levers. That doesnt allow use of a decent ferrule. Can cause issues. Mines totally stable and precise at the moment. But I have struggled in the past. Total user error. I'm shit at cables. Current have no front shifting as I've split a ferrule at the start of the internal routing.
I have both Vertebrae, and powercordz swift housing at home. I'm leaning towards using the swift, as it has ferrules that will fit snugly into the levers. Plus I dont have brake housing in vertebrae.
For the spring the Bee will have all new powercordz cables, all new swift housing, new carbon saddle, new Ti cassette, new chainrings, a power2max spider, new chain, new ceramic BB, ceramic front bearings (cant find a spacer I need to swap the rear), as well as new tape and hoods. Plus I've recently swapped fork, and slammed the stem.
