What do you clean exposed brake line with?
I've been going through rear brake cables like crazy. It starts with crunchy lever action and ends with me noticing corrosion at the caliper and along the top tube. What should I be wiping the cable with to counteract the sweatorade?

I use Pedro's Oranj Peelz to clean cables with. Once clean, you can dab a little Park's grease on the cable to keep it operating smoothly.
