Review: Perfect brake cable and sleeve pack. - It was thankfully relatively easy to replace my front brakes with one of these, the connectors are perfect. One note: you'll probably need a cable cutter just as I did to cut the cable to the required length otherwise the cable could get undone and that makes threading it really super messy. It's a good value set that's easy to install with a little finesse and experience or by watching a helpful YouTube video.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this one cable or 2 cables? Will I be able to wire up both my left and right brakes or just one?**
A: This set consists of two "universal" cables and two cable housings.  By "universal", each cable has a separate lead "plug" at each end.  One of the plugs will fit brakes used on flat bars; the other will fit brakes used on drop bars.  After testing to see which one you need, cut off the other one.  You should be able to wire up both brakes.

**Q: Will it work for mechanical disc brakes?**
A: Yes. You cut them to length. They work great with my bb7's

**Q: How do I put the black rubber on the cable?**
A: Feed the cable through the black housing it will make sense once you see it

**Q: what  is the use of ferrules and end caps? and do i need to buy extra ones from Shimano from amazon?**
A: The new ferrules can replace the ones that should already be there on your bike.  The end caps are used to prevent the ends of the wires from fraying.  If you're just replacing these brake cables, no other extra parts are needed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Shimano quality and value
*by D***. on 5 November 2024*

Always worth paying a few cents more for the Shimano brand. These cables are easy to fit, cut, and use. They are durable and perform well. They are recommended and sold by bike shops for a reason, and are available for a good price here. I definitely recommend these for road bikes.
