It strikes me that having the bend move, however slightly, on the wire is likely to be less destructive than just having a sharp bend moving through an insulator end..

If the movement is sufficient, either can eventually stress the copper enough that it can eventually break. While it doesn't solve this issue, the suggestion of an non-conductive marine pulley is a very good one (although it would NOT be a good idea for bare copper).
