Date Reviewed: April 8, 2004 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Bottom Line: | I now can actually undo my calipers and be able to refit them without having to remove the wheel to get more room to lock in.
Much faster and safer (you hold onto the red tab instead of the metal noodle significantly reducing the risk of kinking the noodle)
- Another innovation from SRAM.
A$12.95-A$16.95 (noodle arc degree dependant) for the seals make them a bit expensive, but with the significant improve to everything including looks and the major reduction in fustration, these are in dispensible for life if you still run cable linear-pulls. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

less than 1 month | | Strengths: |
Simple, cheap, easy to install | | Weaknesses: |
Fat brake cable is a tight fit in the plastic widget | | Similar Products Used: |
Shimano noodles | | Bike Setup: |
LX V-brakes (simple, cheap, effective) | | Bottom Line: | A little, cheap addition that's a lot better than the noodle you're used to. The rubber boot stays in place (no stretching than will eventually split the boot) and a plastic tab gives you fast, smooth release of your brake cable for wheel removal. Bought mine on sale at Bike World, like them too... | | Overall Rating: |
