Cable replacement for SRAM Force grpset

[MrGrumpy]

Ok as per title was going to replace inners and outers of my grpset , any recommendations for excellent quality replacements that are compatible ? Planning to use the winter months to overhaul the good bike ready for March !

Very little difference between any - just use whatever the LBS has in stock - which is probably Shimano.

I use jagwire on my SRAM equipped road bikes

I just replaced a friend's bike with Clark cables, both inner and outer. Test ride outside the home for few minutes were good. During my maintenance course I learned that most LBS use Clark cables that you can buy in bulk dispenser cartons.

I have jagwire on two bikes, which has been excellent and not missed a beat in over 4,500 miles of generally bad weather use.

I have Gore on another bike, but that has sadly been discontinued, so will not be able to make like for like replacement when the time comes. Will probably go Jagwire for that one too.

Not sure how accurate that is. In my experience, the majority use Shimano inner and outer, which are also available in bulk dispensers.

Cheers now just worried about the internal routing of cables !

I have very limited experience in these matters and I take your word for it.

Can I ask, without starting another thread, is there a big difference in galvanised, steel galvanised or stainless steel cables?

Jagwire racer pro lovely cables and they do lots of colours.

Jagwire are good, so are shimano. Clarke's is fine.

Last time I did the commuter though I got the cheapest kit from wiggle or crc. The brake cables were fine, but the gear cables were crap. Indexing was borked, and was a waste of money.
