bulk compressionless brake cable housing GB?

This idea was being tossed around a while back. IIRC Buffalo Bill found a Torelli bulk spool that looked like it would work but the discussion kinda died at that point.

Too much of a pain in the ass? Are other people interested in this?

Am interested especially if we can split up the rainbow of Torelli color options

It'd really work best if someone got a wholesale deal on 30 meter boxes

It's a struggle, but you cut out his tongue, and his last words are "atmo atmo Atmo ATMO ATMOOOOOGORIHGGHRSHGGRLMGGMMGMgrrglegurglegrr....."

That reminds me that next time I have a ss bike, I'm using odyssey linear cables for my brakes.

Yep that's it

Man it would be so ballin to have "Olympic" cable routing on my bikes with handlebar shifters

I'd use a section of plain shift housing for the rear derailleur loop though, this stuff is really too stiff for that purpose

As long as biek provides a Polaroid of his knee with every order I'm fine with black.

nvm, looks like q or j don't stock that torelli stuff.

unless people want this: http://www.jbimporters.com/web/checking_product_description.php?part_number=14339 i'm out.

but i have a feeling that clarks stuff is a cheap imitation of a more expensive product.

the guy I talked to must have been wrong. quoted me $55 for 30m and $28 for 10. Do they make standard cable housing too? online prices are like $55 for 10m.

edit: torelli stuff

I don't think the reaction housing is available in a file box
