i think it's my mechanic.

I have 2 mechanics for work i cant do myself. One is expensive, booked out, always upsells new components but does great work. The other 'gets the job done' somehow, when I need the bike the next day.

I used the latter for a recent cable problem, and he's probably wrenched them a bit.

My sympathies - I do most of my own bike repairs but fully understand the good vs fast predicament when it comes to mechanics.
