    Hi All,

    I went for a spin today and it went well enough, but I had some issues
    with sticking cables. I took my road bike which as been hanging in my
    shed in the salty air for a while.

    For my springtime new bike project, I'd like to perhaps try some other
    cables to avoid this corrosion problem. The cables are Shimano and the
    housing is Shimano and some Jagwire. It seems like I replace cables
    all the time, and when I pull them out they are always rusty and
    corroded.

    What to do?

    Joseph

    Use stainless or if you want belt/suspenders, teflon coated stainless:
