Review on High-Quality 4-Piece Bike Brake Cable Set with Free End Crimps - Universal Brake Cable for Mountain MTB and Road Bikes - Front and Rear Bicycle Brake Line - 2M by Geoffrey Graham

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Mountain bike only - not compatible with road brakes

These are good cables and feel well made and smooth. Yes, and accessories with various tips and pinch ends are good. Despite the label "universal" they are not. They only fit mountain bike (MTB) brake levers with barrel ends. Street brakes require the smaller end shown in the photo above. Most universal brake cable sets have one of these connectors on each end, so you can use either one. It's not just MTB. For the price, it's hard to complain too much. But the description is wrong.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Minor issues
