Default Best Clutch And Throttle Cables ?

I'm thinking about changing out my clutch and throttle cables, old ones have discolored to a tan brown filmed outer clear coat and I'm looking for probably a braided stainless look, that will last without discoloring, work smooth as silk too, maybe even requiring no further adjustment after initial, and wondering what you think is best.

I changed my old clutch cable for a Diamondback, which is a remarkable improvement. Much smoother and lighter in operation, in fact quite a surprise. I'm so pleased with it that I removed the Clutchlite device I had previously installed.

Not a lot of coin but my kids are all grown up now, so that helps some. The cables I have now all work but I have been thinking for at least five years about replacing and I want to go with some real good cables that will last, look good, and make a difference in the feel of controls I can appreciate.

My vote still goes for Barnett.
