Can you now basically pull it right with way up with no tension? If so then its a snapped cable.

Yeah right up, must be snapped cable then

it will only be one side. Easy to change mate. Have a look in the guide section, i've mentioned how to adjust it on my brakes guide.

really :S. Thought you could remove them both from the "T" piece where they join the lever cable.

think about it

1 has snapped, the other is 5years old and strecthed

you fit 1 new one, it will be more efficient on that side than the side with the stcrethed one

simple logical answer - fit a new pair of cables
