I have done a number of brake cables and would have no qualms in doing more.Just need to birdscage the cable inner properly and use high-tin solder. Not lead - electrical stuff is not good here.By birdcaging, the spread of the cable inner strands prevents "pull-thru". The solder just holds the birdscage spread out. So [USER=5069]@cliffa[/USER], it is not the solder holding the load.There are specialised birdscaging tools, I see, but doing it yourself is not difficult.Cheers
