Jagwire Basics Lined Derailleur Cable/Housing Set - (1 Derailleur)

Cable Housing set

I replace my housing and cable set often since I live in the wet NW. I have to purchase these items often

Pros: I often have left over pieces of cable kits and don't need absolutely everything. This enables me to buy just what I need to replace without the stuff I already have at home

Cons: The Housing is a bit overbuilt its overly thick. Its burly and almost restrictive. The metal jacket on this stuff is thick!!

Great quick and inexpensive spare wire and housing to keep in toolbox. Nothing is worse than having to take your bike to the shop and wait for a repair. This cable/housing is quick and easy to install and is a little more robust than other offerings

Pros: Low cost.
Works flawlessly.
Easy install.

Cons: There are slicker alternatives but those are far more expensive.

They call these basic for a reason...they are very basic. Watch out for the uncoated wires cus they can fray very easy. I also notice that the housing is a bit larger than standard derailleur housing so I had to use brake housing furrells.
Otherwise if your looking for the cheepest on the market, this is it!!
I'll give it 5 stars for the price vs performance.

Pros: Super cheep

Cons: Super cheep

good value set

Nice housing and cable set. Unless it's the correct length you will almost always have to cut the housing and cable to length. Then you will need an additional ferrule for the cut end. I found the housing a bit thick and I had to use a brake cable housing ferrule for the end I had cut.

Pros: cable and housing together
good value

Cons: will almost always need a ferrule (which is not included)
housing is thicker than normal derailleur cable housing

I always keep these on hand just in case I need to throw some cables on and I don't have Ripcords sitting around. Good stuff and cheap.
