I looked around and didn't find any good options for off-the-shelf mini braided USB cables and just went with Pexxon. MINI is just hard to find retail options for that aren't generic rubber. I also wanted a custom length 7 foot cable. The only problem is that I had to shave off a bit of the plastic mini-USB adapter to fit in my KUL ES-87. Otherwise I am very pleased and now I can enjoy my boards without a noisy, stiff rubber cable bothering me. I thought about DIY, but that seemed like a pain and I would save valuable time just buying one.
