Good value - great upgrade for older bike rebuild!

These helped bring a free 1981 Schwinn Sports Tourer back from the dead. The brakes are smooth enough to ride and stop from the hoods! Score!

Perfect Braking

Didn't know you needed to change brake cables. THought you just let some silicon spray slide down into the cable housing. Had a training buddy test ride my bike after new wheels were installed. Let me know my brake cables needed replacement. I usually go to a mechanic to do all my bike maintenance. He said I could do it myself. I bought these and the installation was VERY easy. And now, so is my braking. Looking at doing this to my other bikes soon since it was so easy and I felt such a great improvement.

I still ride with rim brakes, so I replace the cables one per year and this store has what I need to keep my road bike humming along.

Better to have a good cable cutters avoiding issues once you select the end to cut. Avoid unthread the cable at the cut end this will cause issues at installation.

Switched my commuter to avid bb7. More than enough cable provided to do the job for both front and rear. Really satisfied.

What more can I say? These are brake cables. They work. Good quality. All the goodies you need in one package. Cheaper than if you went into a bike shop and they cut you pieces of cable and housing.

One of the most basic components. I probably should have replaced them sooner. There is a noticable difference in the ease of braking.
