Buy different cables.

Anchor heads are useless on shifter cables. Used all 4 and they didn't last long. Now I have to spend more money because they were useless. Dissatisfied!

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Tape

Poor finish

The ends of the brake cable were poorly finished with jagged ends that did not match the brake lever assembly. They had to be sanded down a lot which was very painful as the parts are so small. Very frustrating.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some flaws

Brake cable anchor too big

As others have pointed out the ends of the brake cable anchor are too thick and will not fit a standard road bike arm despite the product description. They look like road bike brake cable anchors, but they don't fit.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Nothing here

Derailleur cable broke 8 days after installation (80+ miles).

Front derailleur cable break 8 days after installation (over 80 miles). I assume the other cables will fail soon, just hoping I don't hurt myself before I can replace them with a trusted manufacturer (JagWire/Shimano etc.).

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Not good at all! in sports

The cable ends are too big to fit in the holes on my brake levers. Neither head would fit anywhere near my spare seat. Also, all the cables are the same except for the heads. The brake cable must have a larger diameter. So overall they are useless and a waste of money for me.

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Obsolete

Anchor tolerance for the brake line cable.

Too much tolerance on the brake cable anchor Had to manually file it to fit properly, didn't have time to replace so I just swallowed a bullet and did it, I could see it could cause big problems for some people because you need tools to do it, "you pay for what you get".

Pros
  • Enjoy
Cons
  • No performance
