MECHANICAL FAILURE (1)


Going through the routine procedure of oiling Wendy's gear cables I noticed the outer cables are disintegrating. The wire strands which form the tubing are emerging from the end of the plastic sheathing to form ragged ends. This is causing the inner cable to stick so making changing into higher gears tedious. At first I thought we would have to head off to the nearest bike shop but she is making light of it and so it will be sorted in Barcelona.
