The brakes on my wife’s beloved old road bike were getting crusty and sluggish releasing. So after finding a nice set of new brakes I figured if the brakes are bad the cables can’t be much better. So after a brief search on eBay I found these. They included everything we needed to completely replace front and rear inner & outer brake cables, even the little cable ends. Very happy with this product.

Great quality cable set. There is plenty of cabling provided. I actually made a big mistake while installing and cut the black housing while not realising that one of the cables was inside, essentially wasting it. Luckily I only ruined the shorter cable and the longer cable was long enough to use for both front and rear brakes. Don't do what I did, but know that there is room for some mistakes. Just make sure that you have some good quality cutters to go along with it. I recommend the IceToolz 67A5 cutter. Lastly, use the end caps and crimps wisely because you don't get any extras!

Very nice cables, these come double sided to take care of different types of brakes. High quality cables what we come to expect from Shimano.

Great for a tandem too! I bought this for my Northwoods Tandem (seems to be a little on the small side) back brake and imgained that I wouldn't have enough housing or cable left over for the front, but I did! Did the front and rear. Works great!

It's hard to find long lengths in a name brand Brake cable. The bulk cable at bike shops isn't as good.
