Shinkers

Hello, this is always been something I wondered about.

Sometimes on a derailer or brake, I've had to reclamp the cable. Trying to get the tension set as close as possible without using the barrel adjusters (then using the barrel adjusters for fine tuning), sometimes there's some trial and error involved.

Does clamping a cable, and then loosening/moving/reclamping affect the integrity of the cable? I'm thinking of when you take ordinary wire and put a kink in it, that kink is significantly weaker. Not sure if this is the same type of thing though.

FWIW I've never had any problems, just wondered about it.

Thanks!
