I was looking to see if people ran 2 flexies for top and bottom of cable and if the easults would be better. I'm using a shadow linear cable and it seems like the one side (the arm that the cable housing is connected to if that make sense) pulls after the other side is against the rim. If a flexie would solve that problem.

Thinking of buying 2 flexies one for the top and btoom of the linear cable to see if it helps which i'm sure it will.
I use the odyssey slic cable and it's great.. cheap & equally as effective...
