Is there a fitting that I could put on the ends of the wires to get a more secure connection, or another way to prevent the wires from fraying and twisting?
You can leave the cable connected at the hub and use micro banana plugs in the cable along your fork leg where they're easier to reach and require less slack to accommodate disconnection.
sinewave cycles sells them for a few dollars a set including heat shrink
