Having trouble re-fitting a LEV to another bike as although the cable is long enough, the re-enforced outer wont bend enough to make it fit properly.

Anyone else using a normal gear outer, and would a cheapo shimano (or other) do?

Cheers

Not tried it but you won't have any problems. It's just a cable in an outer after all.

Mines gone to a new bike with a normal cable. No problems at all. The supplied ones are just fancy that's all, they don't work any different.

The original cable is made by Goodridge so it pretty easy to replace with like for like if you wish

Cheers folks, prefer a normal gear cable as the re-inforced one appears to love eating paint too!
