Review on Enhance Maintenance with Pit Posse Universal Cable Luber Tool - A Must-Have Set of 2 by Jerry Frey

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't do the job

Of course, this is my first and only lube, but it just doesn't do the job. First, I don't think the rubber insert is the right shape. Not enough fabric. Second, knurled clamp screws are far from adequate. I had to twist them with pliers to even get a proper seal. Third, the hole where the cable lube tube is inserted is the wrong size. It doesn't form a good seal. Half the thickness of the rubber insert hole is about 15% larger than the tube, and the other half is about the same size as the tube. With these rubber connectors, the hole needs to be slightly smaller than the hose to ensure a good seal (think barbed hose connectors). from the clutch cable housing below. I accomplished this by filling it with as much grease as possible and then finding an air compressor blowgun with a nozzle that's good for the grease and pushing it through at 90psi of pressure. Once I got it working a bit I went back and revised the lube. Maybe my cable was just really stubborn, or maybe all those tools were so bad, but I wouldn't recommend buying this one.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
