SHIMANO MTB Stainless Steel Gear Cable Set Cycling Gear

I buy the products my bike mechanic recommends , and save a lot over bike shop prices. Shimano, an industry leader. Be sure to consider cable housing, again with my mechanics endorsement. For a smooth shifting, it makes bike riding a breeze!

This is an awesome shifter cable replacement kit. It comes with everything you need for a nice little upgrade to shifters that aren’t performing at their peak level. If you find that no matter how much you twist your shifter barrels back and forth to get just the right shifter adjustment and it’s not working, you need to replace your cables. I decided to pick up this kit to replace the shifter cables on my wife’s bike and she immediately noticed a major performance difference when shifting.The kit was relatively easy for me to install, but I also grew up working in a bike shop for over seven years of my older child/young adult life. For those without that level of experience, the instructions explain everything you need to know in order to install these cables yourself, but you will need a bit of resourcefulness since not all shifters are the same.The kit comes with top-level Shimano cable housing, two shifter cables (one short and one long), cable housing ends, and cable tips to ensure the cables don’t fray, causing them to lose their tightness and power. Installing this shifter cable kit is a great way to bring life back to your bike, especially if you’re frustrated with the performance of your shifters and don’t know why they’re so problematic.For the cost, this is a great replacement set with Shimano quality and performance proven over decades.

Worked well as replacement for the shifter cables on my bike - I only used the sleeves, didn't use the cable as my old cable was still OK. Both shifters work really well now.

The rear derailleur on my kid's Trek 4300 Mountain Bike was no longer working as it should. After buying a replacement derailleur (Shimano Acera, from Amazon too) and installing it, I noticed that the shift cable and housing were messed up. So I bought this Shimano Shift Cable Kit. It comes with everything you need. The job seems to be a little intimidating but after watching a few YouTube videos I was able to replace the rear derailleur, the shift cable and the housing rather easily. The bike is shifting great now! Cable fit perfectly in my Shimano 8 speed V-Brake. I would recommend buying real cable cutters though, much cleaner cut and you can return it the next day and tell HD that they didn't work for you. It doesn't hurt that I feel like a Bike Mechanic God when I finished the job. :o)

The rear cable is approximately 6 inches too short for my Bacchetta Recumbent.The front cable was fine, and everything else went smoothly.

If you don't have special cable cutters you will need to ream out the your cuts to make it work. Otherwise, it basically works, I haven't tired 3rd party replacements which may be as good. Shimano is my go to product, even when its more expensive.

Great gear control cables. Inner cable and casing. Used to replace front and rear gear cables on a mountain bike with Shimano components. Super happy.

Here's to hoping it's not a knockoff and not stainless steel. Installed myself, flawlessly I might add 😉, and working just fine. The housings are filled 👍. Expecting many years of dedicated service 😃🥰
