You don't make sense. If "the road bikes have more mileage on them," that means that they "get used the most." Mileage is pretty much all that matter for shift cable wear and tear. But wait, you also wrote this, which directly contradicts your above statement:

So, the road bikes have more mileage on them...except that the mountain bike has more mileage on it.
And you think that the rest of us are "all over the place"? Yikes.
