Probably made in the same factory as the name brand stuff
Cyclists are a funny bunch. They have a magical belief system in name brands and weight. We ride bicycles, not pilot the space shuttle. The generic brake cable I bought works every bit as good as the jagwire I have in my shop. No difference in braking performance. The only thing that is different is that it cost me half of what the expensive stuff costs. Go buy it and do something useful with the extra ten bucks in your pocket.Read full review...

Works but is mushy in use.
The housing is a bit mushy but fine for box store bike rebuilds. Smooth operation and the liner also helps restrain corrosion. Seems consistent from lot to lot. I use it as a less pricey option.

Just what the doctor ordered!
Excellent for bicycle brake linings. Cables move smoothly through the cable housing without any hitches when I pull the brake levers. Nice! I think lined brake cable housings are the best for this. Simply cut to length with a cable cutter, I personally use an icepick to clean out the cut ends a file to clean the ends. Doing this assures the cable slides through nice and easy. Usually leave off the housing ends until the cable is through then slide them up the cable and push them on the housing. Thats just a personal preference but whatever works works. A Real Nice Purchase Here. Read full review...

good as orginal
With these lines I was able to re cable all the brake lines on my bike as well on my lawn mower. All the cables are of good quality and are easy to to work with just like the original, I highly recommend it if you are having trouble with your brake cables or any equipment that requires such cables to control itRead full review...

Right length, price and quality
My e-bike requires longer cables than are usually provided with cable kits. The 25 foot length of this cable is more than enough to give the right length. It will also allow me to improve on the original cable routing. The quality is good and the price is right. What's not to like?Read full review...

Great Bulk Buy!
Been doing a side hussle bike work in my shop for fun. Instead of running to the LBS all the time for little things I needed, I started stocking up. This is great bulk buy for cables to have on hand, and WAAAAAAAY cheaper than they would sell you by the foot at the shop. I still shop the LBS for all my parts I need to keep people going.Read full review...

cable housing.
i buy cable housing in bulk. i build a lot of bikes and just hate buying cable housing by the foot at my local bike shop. i do make a point of spending plenty of money at the shop, you must. they are an important part of being a cyclist and must be supported. this is a great value and i recommend it.Read full review...

Teflon Lined Brake Cable
If you want to replace the outer cable on either your brakes or 3 speed shifter cable, this is the way to go, as the old original cables have a steel outer coil that surrounds the inner steel cable. After many years the inner and outer parts rust together. The advantage of the Sunlite outer cable is that it has a teflon inner lining that separates the steel outer coil from the steel inner cable, so it will never rust!Read full review...

So I have it on hand.
This stuff works great and buying it in sufficient length for all possible future needs is a good idea since this stuff will likely be good for the next 50 years.
