As per my knowledge 'Deformable feature' is suitable for this. In case if you are aware of the deformable feature creation. In the pulley and rope assembly file, the guide curve used for tube feature is to be created in the path of pulley curvature.

I am using NX 9. Please follow below Google drive link to understand the procedure of creating Deform feature.
I have shown pulley and Rope models as example.
