It is hard to believe the cables aerodynamics have any negligable
effect for a rider over 230 lbs. Keeping water out may be an advantage.
But to have hard 90 degree turns with cables taped down to handle bars
(based on where your grip is 'not') seems like the friction would wear
and stretch the cable more than direct lines with one smooth curve and
then direct cable routing.
Does anyone have any valid comparison information or quantitative data
between the two?
Rather than subjective opinions alone, I am looking for factors like:
- efficiency,
- control,
- response,
- braking power,
- maintenance required/ease,
- replacement life, and/or
- safety issues.
Thanks!!
