								You say you use this for Rohloff gears. Why not use standard gear outer cable?

									Rohloff cables are under much lower tension as all the indexing is done within the hub, the shifter simply pulls the cables to and fro. 
The brake outer allows the inner to move with far less friction and the housing itself travels around the bends of the a frame much easier.
Thanks!

								Is the outer smooth or 'ridgey'?

								Is the black outer surface smooth or is it 'liney' and 'ridgey' whereby the black material is thin enough to see the metal coil underneath?
I have bought cheap cable in the past where the black outer is really thin and prone to splitting more.
Cheers!
