Welding wire is commonly used to get the fine strands and flexibility. It wil also stand up to some petroleum product exposure. If you don't have a source local to you, Northern Arizona Wind and Sun ships nationwide. The insulation on welding wire is not suitable for 24/7 - 365 in the weather but for our application should stand up especially if the bike is faired or the wires are hidden within the frame. Jeff
