Review on CAMITLLI Housing Aluminium Plastic Mountain by Luke Liu

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cable ok for the price

I am updating the review as the name has now been changed. The cables I ordered originally said they included brake cables and shifter cables, but what was received was brake cables only. The cables themselves aren't bad for the price, but not as good as the established brands. The inner cable has two different tensioning tabs, one at each end, so you have to cut off the one you don't need even to start the installation. The case is cut with some distortion but I was able to fix it with the right tool. The plastic end caps are quite tight so installation was a little more involved than the big brands. The inner cable started fraying on the first pull so it will snap sooner than I would like. I generally agree with them for a cheap bike, but wouldn't use them for anything better than, say, a bike purchased from Target. ORIGINAL REVIEW - *** The description when purchased said it was a brake cable and shifter cable in one set. I only received one set of brake cables. It worked great for this purpose, but I needed both for my application.
