Sorry is this for helical or braided, I thought you put a bend in helical housing where cutting to get a better, smoother cut. Or maybe I've been doing it wrong for decades.

Is this decidef by whether the cable is a snug fit? Is the same true of levers?

Cheers. Pre-bending and then filing would be a faff.

Excellent, thanks. I was hoping that was the case.
When is a ferrule ever required then if not for spiral or braided and why do the kits always supply them?

I need to change my brake cables, which are currently standard type and am considering going to braided compressionless housing. The brake is Shimano BR-CX77 and the recess for the housing is a very snug fit on my current, 5mm, Jagwire housing which has no ferrule.
My question is do I need a ferrule if I change to compressionless housing? If I do that poses an issue. I wonder if I don't use one, is there a risk the strands are eventually going to start poking through the hole for the inner, thus rendering the brake less effective.

Purchased my Time pedals from Merlin Cycles (if my memory is correct). I asked them in spring when they would be getting the Time Link pedals in. They didn't know and I still have not seen any in the UK.
I would be keen to hear of a UK supplier.
OK. Thanks.
