Review on 🚲 Optimized 2-Pack Mountain Bike Brake Cable Gear Cable Wire with Crimps Kit by Juan Russell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Just what I need for mechanical disc brakes

I have a 2015 Raleigh Misceo Trail 2.0 hybrid bike. It is equipped with Shimano disc brakes, which I have never worked with before. The other day the rear brake cable broke and I was looking for a replacement cable. I really didn't want to change the cable routing so I was hoping to just find a bare cable and hopefully one that would be disc brake compatible. Looking at Revain I couldn't find anything special so I took a chance and bought this kit. Although this cable isn't exactly the same thickness (it's a little thinner, probably a millimeter or two), it works in existing cable ducts and was easily replaced within 5 minutes. The brakes pull wonderfully, the cable seems to be of good quality. The best part? I have a few additions in case something like this happens again. For the money, this set can't be beat.

Pros
  • Sports and Outdoors
Cons
