Hey guys, thought I'd do a quick poll here for those who've installed numeric cables in a 987.
When they were fresh, did anyone experience a scraping feeling, like a fine-grit grind as you shift?
I think it's the internal rods scraping against a braid, and feels a bit like scraping your fingers over sand paper.

I suppose there's always a chance that lightning can strike twice and that I got something bad... but before being too much of a complainer, I thought I'd check in here to see if anyone else felt that, and if it goes away on its own.
This upgrade's logged 0 miles due to so many debugging steps, but i'm considering a swap back to the OEM cables right now... sigh.

- First set of cables had this scrape, and sent it back to Numeric.
- They confirmed there was a problem, and sent another set back.
- I installed the new ones, and it's the exact same feeling even though they checked & lubed the new pair.
- Both time, it's the vertical action only. Horizontal motion's completely smooth and feels like butter.
