What? You guys need to check your sources.

Compresionless (not a real word) = incompressible = linear cable....

Who got what wrong? Sorry if the wording wasn't up to par

Sorry, but you got this wrong....
" it is possible. But you have to match your brake cable diameter to your gear cable outer's inner diameter. "

...it is not possible to use it safely. Sure, you can brush your teeth with bleach and they'll get clean, but it's not a good idea either. :shock:

"Compressionless" is a Shimano-ism.

Here's a split housing picture. You just don't see this with brake housing, but it's a real possibility with compressionless shifter housing especially if used for brakes. :shock:

nobody uses gear outer on a bmx anymore , ruben did it for a very short time and guess why he stopped
