Re: [ST] clutch cable status

[Paul Fox <pgf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hmmm.  interesting theory.  however, the lever has adequate freeplay
throughout its travel, and the break occurred right up at the top,
where the pressed on end mates with the lever.  but i'll clearly be
watching things closely.  i'm going to practice on the old cable to
see if the bend at the bottom can be straightened -- i suspect it
can't, without kinking.  i'll also find out from a friend how long
his trophy cable is, since don suggested it as a replacement.
