It is a basic but good shift cable and housing. It is easy, quick and it makes a very clean cut. This housing is top notch. The kit comes with two separate cables, one long plastic housing, plastic housing ends, and metal cable ends. There is a certain amount of cable housing and 8 end caps. It is excellent for the essential cable and housing replacement, all you really need.
This kit comes with the shift levers on a handlebar stem mount, and the required cables and housings. It is one piece that can be cut to length for both the front and rear lengths.
Why We Like This:

This cable works to replace your prexisting shimano set. It comes with 2 cables, several feet of housing, 5 plastic end caps, and two aluminum cable ends. It fits good and looks good on the bike. It can be used as replacement for worn cables/housings.
This is not a high end cable set for riding fanatics, but is perfect for the casual / exercise rider. The housing does not allow compression play so they allow for prefect shifting on indexed shifters.

This is a real nicely woven cable. The shifter cable end is standard and there is only one style. It can be used for either one as long as the thickness is proper. The cable end crimp is in a small plastic bag taped to the inside of the package. It includes a plug for the end piece to prevent unraveling. It is barely long enough to attach and tune. This cable is longer than even needed for the rear derailleur, so it can be used in either case for the front or rear derailleur. This cable will last for a long time with the proper usage.
Why We Like This:
Come in two styles and it is a real nicely woven cable
Very smooth ans slides easily with no perceptible stretching

The velofort shimano gear shift cable should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. It is suitable for all types of mountain bike/road bike/folding bike. It is twisted spirally to form the core, making the whole structure compact, strong and tensile, and the stainless steel bike gear shift cable makes the surface more smooth. It is not only for exercise, but also for comfort and safety.
The end cap of the shift cable housing provides a seal to prevent dust and debris. It would also easily handle an XL full suspension. This works perfect on an old Huffy 18 speed. It has a wider range of applications, and can be applied to mountain bikes, road bikes, folding bikes, etc.
Why We Like This:
Greatly reduces friction with internal lines, provides faster operational response, and facilitates shifting gears
Ultra-low friction black cable housing with slick liner
