There is no better cable
by Anonymous
Louisiana

This cable, especially matched with Shimano components, is as good as it gets. Installation and operation are so very, very smooth. The communication with the brakes is flawless and seemingly instantaneous.

My old cables were 16yrs old and had faded over the years but I didn�t realize how much until I put fresh cables in....wow! What a difference....

Great cables

I've had several sets of these on different bikes, the polymer coating and the housing are very good in my opinion. Unfortunately, the 800mm long cable housing for the front brake is too short for slacker gravel frames with disc brakes and wider bars and longer headtubes. And this is on a 56cm frame.

Great brake cables

These polymer coated brake cables are very slick. The installation was very easy, and am using them with the non 9000 or 6800 series brakes, (7900). I did take care though to scrape off the cable coating where it gets clamped in by the fixing bolt, I'm a bit paranoid about the cable slipping through the clamp. Great cable.

Have recently transitioned from Campagnolo mechanical to Shimano Dura-Ace Di2. This cable set provided the finishing touch to D-A's excellent shifting and braking systems

There are lots of other shifter cables on the market. These aren't cheap, but they do a great job to restore smooth, quick shifting, and they're easy to install.

Very slippery high quality cables

I bought this cable set for a bike equipped with Ultegra 6500 (Shimano does not approve the use of these cables without Dura-Ace 9000 brakes). The polymer coating on this set can be scratched off with sandpaper, so that is what I did when securing the cables in the brakes. Great set of cables, probably the best you can buy.
