[Shotimes] E-Brake Cable Lube Recommendation

[Leigh Smith]

I use and recommend a special lube for cables. It is called dri-slide 
and is found in motorcycle shops, It has moly and graphite in it. Most 
importantly the nozzle is a 4-5in. long steel needle that you insert 
into the cable between the cable and the housing to really pump the lube 
in deep. Works great on old wobbly speedo cables, e-brake cables, 
throttle, clutch. etc.
