Hot take: Using cable ties on every bit of housing might be holding you back
Ngl I spent like 5 years zipping every cable down tight on builds until a guy at a shop in Portland pointed out my shifts were stiff because of it. He showed me how leaving a little slack near the derailleur actually lets the housing move natural like it's supposed to. Has anyone else had that moment where you realized over-tightening was making things worse?

Hold on, is cable tie tightness really the thing making or breaking your shifting?

Wait, didn't you always say cable tension was the main thing, or did I just totally misread your old posts?
