Cable Lube NC35

Post by perculiarraddish »

HI everybody,

Quick question regarding lubrication of control cables -

I seem to recall reading somewhere that NC35 throttle & clutch cables had some sort of teflon inner & thus did not require lubrication - is this the case?

If not I'm guessing something like silkopen would be appropriate?

Cheers
Chris

Hi,
I just squirt a bit of chain lube down the cables every so often, wont do any harm.
Cheers
Ian
