"You need to use the brake cable for the brakes and the gear/derailer cable for gears. Here's a very valuable tip many other reviewers have mentioned and that is use a pair of cable cutters that are made for cutting brake or gear cable."
"You may want to invest in a good cable cutter."
"Do yourself a favor and buy some good wire cutters, don't try and cut break lines with a butter knife."
"I built a recumbent trike bike and need cables to connect my brakes and gear shifters."
"It's easy to cut the cables and outer sheath to the length that you need for your particular bike."
"However, be sure to check the length of your cables before ordering to make sure they are a match."
"One installation trick I learned: After removing the old cables, I sprayed PTFE (Teflon) "dry lube" into all the housings and all contact points along the cable path."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The plastic insert does two things; it provides a better grip on the tube than if the u-bolt were used by itself and, it keeps the tube from being crimped or scratched. The plastic insert only fits the smaller of the two u-bolts because the radius of the larger u-bolt is too big for the insert. In my case that's fine because the radius of the smaller u-bolt was perfect for my tube's diameter."
"I'm pretty sure that if I was traveling down the highway at 70mph and went head on into the grill of an on-coming 18-wheeler...this mount would be the only thing that survived."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"TaoTronics is one of the best manufactures of Bluetooth earbuds and speakers I have yet to find, and their exceptionally high quality products are backed with an exceptional warranty (1 year, even extending it an additional 6 months if you register) and a top of the line customer service that far surpasses most others, hands down."
"Since I first saw the Plantronics BackBeat, and later designs from companies like Beats, I've wanted an earbud headset of this type. The product arrived very quickly with free shipping, packaged well in the standard Amazon box.. Flipping up the inner lid, I was greeted with 2 baggies, a sport mesh bag, a user's manual, and a business card detailing benefits to product registration. Of course I immediately removed it from the bag, placed the headphone cable behind my neck, played with the magnetic tips, and fitted the earbuds to my ears. And when I launched Pandora, Donna Summer came blaring out at a high but comfortable volume. The plastics feel to be of good quality and the brushed metal tips provide a nice accent. THE BAD. The flip-open charger port (microUSB) is on the remote and relies on the flexibility of the rubber cover, so I question its longevity."
"I then decided to pair the earbuds with my iPhone (7 Plus). because it would not pair with either."
"Sometimes I have issues with the Bluetooth not wanting to switch from the headphones to another device like my car or surround sound, but I'm assuming that is an issue with the phone and not the headset."
"These headphones are amazing."

"The housing isn't long enough to replace both the front and rear cables."
"Worked well however you do need special tools to cut these."
"great quality cables and housings."
"I work at a bike shop and this is a great deal."
"They advertised as shifting cables but when they came they were brake cables which should not be used interchangeably."
"A bit surprised by this, as I worked in a bike shop for 10 years, and Shimano usually sells good stuff."
"As other reviewers have stated, these are NOT Shimano SP-41 cables with compressionless housing; instead, they are cheaper SP-40 cables with spiral-wound housing."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"While the tool can be used to put the pin back in (if the pin isn't completely out), I found it easier to just use a hammer. I would not use this tool to put back a standard link while on a bike because of the bending."
"Either way it took about 30 seconds to figure out how to get the chain off, and about 120 seconds to figure out how to get it back together so win win and its well build."
"Well, it was easy enough to remove chain links with this thing, but there were no instructions included with it at all, so I couldn't figure out how to use it to reinstall the pins into the links."
"I put my Kindle Fire on bluetooth speaker and listened to Josh Turner as I replaced the front deraileur."
"This tool worked very well and pushing the pin back in to secure the links."
"From the integrated piece of curved wire to hold your chain while you insert the pin, to the adjustable link holder (probably not the technical name), this made short work out of what is usually a chore."
"Not only did it cut the chain easily and cleanly, but with a little care, and a needle nose pliers to hold the pin, I was able the mend the chain as well when it turned out the missing links, despite being the apparent correct size, did not work."
"I was worried about the durability of this tool, but I haven't been disappointed yet."
