Copper can work harden & crack from repeated flexing & vibration, but solder is typically not easy to crack without brute force or excess movement.
If you are worried you can use stronger silver solder.
Note the Cable clamp behind the pulley & there's also another by the reservoir, plus it is connected with rubber hose on both ends to keep from putting stress on the pipe.
You could miter & weld one out of steel if you want to torture yourself... this was my original plan until I found a much simpler way.
Mine has been working fine for 3 years now, so I'm not worried.
