Default VNA coax recommendation

HI,

I have an old HP network analyzer that goes up to 1.3Ghz. I need to
make up some more cables for it, though, as the existing ones (not
original) are far too thick and inflexible for comfort.

I have to cut three identical 2-foot lengths (for phase matching
purposes) of some 50 ohm coax for this purpose, to connect the VNA to
its bridge. Can anyone suggest a suitable, readily available coax for
this job? The terminations will be N-types, by the way. I'd like
something flexible and easy to terminate, ideally. Just don't want a
cable that will change its Zo every time it gets a bit bent!
