Review: Shimano Cable set - Authentic Shimano parts, installed yesterday and working as expected.
Review: Great replacement cable and from a reputable brand - Great replacement cable and from a reputable brand, I used this part to replace the broken speed lever cable on my Kona bike and got my bike working again. Inexpensive and reliable easy to install and adjust by yourself. To do this job I recommend you the 4th Hand tool (look up here for Enzo Bicycle Professional Brake Shifter Gear Cable Caliper Tension Puller Plier Tool) and this will help you a lot to get the required adjustments done.
