Review on Origin8 Alloy Cable Single Black by Neil Biondo

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for classic cars!

I restored a 1980 Univega Sportour road bike with a Suntour rear derailleur on the down tube. The shifter bolt broke when I took it off and found the threads were already stripped. I upgraded the derailleurs anyway to get the derailleurs working so I bought this tether case stopper. I received a 28.6mm clip and it fits perfectly. What I like best is that you can move it forwards or backwards, centered or off-center. I was going to use my extra piece of shifter cable but it was a little short but with a small adjustment of the clamp forward the cable fits perfectly. The construction looks solid and can last a lifetime. Just take a look. The price is around $10, which is negligible. That's exactly what I need for a man who restores vintage wheels as a hobby.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Functionality
