Out of probably 2 of the best types of Cables/Cable Housings you can get for shifter cables what do you think is best?
The Flack Jackets are a kevlar weave and have ends and mini tubes that connwect that can run along any exposed set of line keeping it sealed (i assume it comes with enough to even seal the top/bottom tube routings, maby im wrong though)
Also the housing is pretty much compression proof.
Vs the Nokon housings, which are Made of aluminum links making it compleatly compressionless and the most kink resistant cable seemingly on the market. but unlike the Flack jackets the cable would be exposed during breaks in the cable (is that even a bad thing with these? do they do a good job keeping the gunk out at the ends?) And i assume these are just housings, what cable would go best with them?
Here is 2 pics of them:
