Great Cables: Parts & Components

These cables were perfect for my bike. I had to replace the handbrakes when I replaced the handlebars and the new brake levers didn't match the end fittings on the old cables. The new cables, eyelets and end caps that were included were just what I needed for the Tektro brake levers I currently use. It was very easy to adjust the length of the cables to my bike and installing the grommets and end caps was a breeze.

Pros
  • Durable, smooth stainless steel cable for more stopping power and smoother operation
Cons
  • Good but not great

Cables too short, not enough sleeve to use both

The advantage of this product is the long sleeve. That's where the excitement ended for me. Yes, two cables are supplied, but neither is the same length as the long sleeve. Making a long sleeve is absolutely pointless and useless. The longer cable of the two is only 6ft, I was expecting 7ft based on the length of the sleeve. The seller needs to add more detailed information about their product.

Pros
  • Front brake cable and rear brake cable are long enough to fit the shifter cables
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Great cables!: Cycling

They arrived as advertised and worked great. What I didn't expect is that the bodywork is a huge improvement over most bikes I've seen. It wasn't just a plastic tube. It was a plastic tube with a plastic inner liner and some sort of aluminum inside. Made it a little rough but they seem very durable and should last a long time. There are enough cables and housings for the front and rear brakes. There were also more than enough small ferrules in the kit that were too crimped to prevent the wire…

Pros
  • Cable has both mountain bike and road ends
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Better than expected.

These cables are better than the original cables in a length adjustable housing and accessories. I liked the case/body with the spiral metal mount on top of the plastic material. Be sure to use a hacksaw or non-crushing knife when cutting. If you're using wire cutters, you'll need to find a way to open up the crimped end. It's also very easy to duplicate lengths using the old cable as a guide. I had an issue not related to the cable but to the variety of bikes and cables. Both sides have a…

Pros
  • Supplied with 8 cable lugs and 10 cable end plugs
Cons
  • Not sure
