VE.Direct cable minimum bend radius?

I'm having a hard time finding a minimum bend radius listed for the ve.direct cables in any documentation. The installation I'm working on uses some 2x2 inch (51mm) wire trough and some 2x1 inch. The ve.direct cables are all too long for the raceway runs (using shortest possible lengths) so I'd like to coil up the excess inside that trough, but am concerned about damaging it. Does anyone know the limit or have experience with either successful tight coils or with damaging them by coiling too tightly?

Thanks,

Mike

I don't know if there's a specification, but the cables are very light and are able to take a very tight radius.
