Why Garage Cables Fail
Cables fail for upstream reasons. A new cable on a damaged drum will fray within months. Catching the cause is what makes the fix last.
- Worn cable drum with grooves or pitting
- Spring imbalance putting unequal load across the cables
- Surface rust from Tule-fog and Delta humidity
- Cable rubbing on a misaligned bracket
- Age fatigue (cables have a similar lifespan to springs)
- Bottom-bracket damage causing the cable to twist
