Review on 🚴 Jagwire - Universal Sport DIY Bike Cable Kit for Road and MTN Brakes, Compatible with SRAM and Shimano, Double Ended Brake Cables (Road & Mountain), Includes Stainless Steel Cable & Housing by Johnny Wheat

It would have been better if Jagwire had been kind enough to actually CARE and sent me the black housing I paid for. Instead, they sent me a gray cable with a sticky label that said "Black" covering the original description of "Gray" on the packaging. Jagwire, just because you covered the "grey" sticker with a "black" sticker really doesn't mean it. made the case black. It's not about changing colors. This was the first time I've replaced brake cables. The kit had everything I needed (the bike was purchased at a regular Ironhorse urban hybrid bike sport shop). I didn't buy cable shears or body shears because I found a better method on YT for those who have a Dremel with a cut-off wheel. that I have. I simply - marked the cut line with a blue marker - inserted the new cable into the housing about half an inch past the cut line - ran a thin stream of cold water over the cable to keep it from melting - then carefully cut the cable with a cutting wheel - then complete the cut with the flat side of the disc - Pull out the cable and spray a silicone grease spray on the cable to lubricate it and remove any metal dust from the cutting edge. This resulted in an amazing, perfectly even cut on both the cable and the housing (although the cable cut was only made to prevent flattening of the inner shell of the housing, so I later re-cut the cable to length after installing and adjusting the brakes shortened) . The real one is 25-50 percent less slack than the old original Ironhorse cable, so that's a good thing. Aside from sending me the wrong color, the quality of the kit itself was superb.
