Original Jagwire no extra packaging

I received 2 cables that were very long for my mountain bike and fit perfectly! They were exactly the same as the Jagwire cable I replaced and I was happy to actually get a replacement cable for the price of 1 cable. I want more sellers to ship their items with reduced packaging.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

These aren't really Slick SS cables!

As another reviewer said, I don't think these are actually Jagwire Slick SS cables. Compared to other Jagwire Slick SS cable sets I own, they have a matte finish and their ends are stamped "JC" while the stainless steel cables are stamped "JS". They work but you can get smooth stainless steel cables for a little less elsewhere and it's not what is advertised!

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • 0

Perfect replacement for Shimano shift cables

Perfect fit! My Shimano cable was kinked and frayed and derailleur adjustment was impossible. Yhis snapped in for both front and rear derailleurs and was easy to tighten. I have never replaced shifter cables (yes, brakes) and the process was very simple and straightforward. I recommend watching some YouTube videos if you've never done one. I hope I don't have to buy them again, but if I do I'll buy them again.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Protection

Did a great job fixing the pull out sofa bed.

Used to repair the "traction" of a sectional chair where the inner cable was so stretched and frayed that it could no longer function (even after several months of use! I don't want to bother with warranty service the couch, so I did a little research and found that this cable was all I needed to replace). It was a little longer than the stock shifter cable, but it's definitely better than being too short. Arrived with no problems and showed no signs of wear or stretching.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Negative is present

This cable is the best way to improve derailleur shifting.

Most riders don't take good care of their multispeed derailleur and after a while the cable stretches, the cable housing fails, the cable wants to bind and the transmission stops working I don't work . For little money, these shifter cables prevent stretching and cable body wear, and a stiffer, smoother inner casing makes shifting much easier. Not a great replacement for maintenance, but as you've probably settled in, with proper installation and calibration at the time of digging in, your bike

Pros
  • Easy to set up
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

High quality stainless steel cables.

Shift cables are usually made of galvanized or stainless steel. I prefer stainless steel as it should be more corrosion resistant than zinc plated (yes, chemists can consider stainless doesn't mean no rust, but close enough). I don't know if they will last longer than zinc plated ones, as I usually replace the cables for wear at the clamp (probably due to the cable bending too much from impact) or because I want to touch up/replace the handlebars. / stem / derailleur / derailleur due to damage…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad
