The outer cable on my dropper post has corroded at the seatpost end and the cable doesn't return without assistance. Does anyone make stainless outer cables?

I use Shimano sp41 and then replace regularly (well, more regularly than gear cables anyway). Seems to be more in the firing line so need more attention.

I wouldn't mind as much, but the bike is only 3 months old...

Yeah, SP41 here too with the addition of a Middleburn cable oiler on.  Seems to last ok.
