WARNING: Dangerous product.

This cable failed before first use. The plastic case cover is too malleable and may crack or tear. This product needs to be pulled out. My case cracked after installation and before I rode my bike onto the street. It may only look like a blemish, but the shroud is necessary to keep the brake cable taut. No tension, NO BRAKES. If the cable fails during use, serious injury may result. Brakes are very important on a bike.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some errors

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very high quality cable sets that I would buy again.

Supplied with additional crimp and cable lugs and round cable buffers for external cable routing near frame rails. Properly sized brake and shifter cables and housing, easy to cut with parking cutters and easy to install. Lots of extra cable and body length for my large mountain bike. Smooth indexing and quick response from the brake and derailleur. It took less than an hour to swap out all four cables and adjust the brakes and index gears.

Pros
  • 1 year trial period
Cons
  • Interval

**GET THIS KIT IF YOU PROCESS SHIFT AND BRAKE CABLES**

I paid about $12 for the kit and all the shift and brake cables on a bike I rebuilt have completely replaced. for a friend. The difference between this kit and others is that it includes two cables with different thicknesses and casings. Shifter cables use a different, thinner cable and housing. Many of the other budget kits on Amazon only have a brake cable housing and cable which will not give you the smooth shifting you are looking for. Also, I highly recommend investing in an airplane cable

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Great price but one small problem

This is a very inexpensive replacement brake and shift cable for amateur cyclists like my wife and me. Our bikes (Giant) are 90% Shimano parts and I only have one small complaint. The Shimano brake cable nipple (more barrel-shaped than the pear at the other end) for Shimano brakes is slightly smaller in circumference and height, causing the nipple not to sit straight or tight in the brake housing mount. On our bikes, the nipple can twist in the body and dangle a little. I think they will workโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Yakamoz 2-in-1 Universal Bike Shift & Brake Housing

I bought this kit to replace the derailleur on my Gary Fisher mountain bike. The cable worked great for my bike, but the cable I had to use had two downsides. It was crimped in the middle of the cable and the other was at the end which was fine as I ended up trimming it with an excess which I didn't want. So far this is not a problem, but keep in mind that they are made in China. I love this kit because I didn't have parts for anything and they are complete brake and derailleur cable kits which

Pros
  • This is awesome
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Overall very good, just pay attention to the switch housing/cable length!

Overall I was happy with the quality and price. The kit contains 4 of the three cable O-rings and a large number of (plastic) cable ends and cable ends. For reference, in the next part I reworked the cables on a larger mountain bike. 22.5 inch / 57 cm brake cable / housing length was good. I adjusted it to length and it fits. I have an extra case left and it is likely that this set will fit a size or two larger. The shift cables were short. I had enough body to fit in the standard set, maybe Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Expensive

The best quality set at the lowest price!

Designed for mountain bikes, road bikes and hybrid bikes, this complete cable set offers the highest quality parts at the most affordable price. You will need a pair of wire and case cutters to complete and professionally install this kit. The kit includes front and rear derailleur gears and front and rear brake lines. The kit includes two solid body parts, one for transmission and the other, thicker, for braking. It also includes all the cable lugs and cable end terminals to ensure aโ€ฆ

  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ

  • Good but not great

Good quality but a bit short

I bought this kit to replace the rear derailleur on my old 2013 Diamondback. The original was worn out and I decided to take it to a bike shop. Usually these repairs are inexpensive, but when I realized how cheap the cables are I decided to do it myself and I'm glad I did. The quality seems great, there are two derailleur cables and two brake cables. I accidentally cut the brake cable thinking it was the shifter cable so watch the ends but that was entirely my fault. Once I found the rightโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
