Most lubricants would just attract dirt into the cable housings. It depends on the type of cable and your riding conditions. Good quality cables and housings don't require any lube. @Missy

I generally don’t lube cables, and if I do, I don’t do it often. Most lubricants would just attract dirt into the cable housings.

It depends on the type of cable and your riding conditions. Good quality cables and housings don’t require any lube.

I've read that after you clean the bike you should lube brake cables, etc. I haven't done this before (bike is still fairly new but I've ridden it a lot), and it's due for a cleaning. Thanks!
