from Eastern WA Date Reviewed: March 26, 2011 Strengths: Don't know, I'm not going to install it. Weaknesses: Pre-cut housing with housing sections that are far too short for a suspension frame. Plastic end ferrules may seal better, but look cheap and not durable. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Tested or demo'ed only Price Paid: $36.00 Purchased At: Universal Similar Products Used: Other Shimano cable housing over the years. Bike Setup: Salsa Big Mama build

from Jericho VT Date Reviewed: August 30, 2007 Strengths: truly superb shifting Weaknesses: housings are cut too short. they provide two long pieces for the front sections leading from the shifters. And then two short pieces and a slightly longer one, none of which was long enough for the other front derailleur section. I had to use a chunk of old housing to cover. Irritating as hell. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Bullwinkle's to Mobbs Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $25.00 Purchased At: Jenson Similar Products Used: pretty much everything that's every been made Bike Setup: SC BLT, Fox Vanilla 125

from Ann Arbor, Michigan, USA Date Reviewed: July 18, 2007 Strengths: Smooth, quick shifting. Not much more expensive than ordinary cables and housings, and isn't your time and ride quality worth something? Great performance even after some very dusty rides. I shift, it goes. Weaknesses: Twitchy at first-- hard to get used to the very light action. Too much of a good thing? Wondering if other rider's 'stretching' is a loose cable clamp. I guess I'll find out over the next couple months! Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Poto Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $25.00 Purchased At: lbs Similar Products Used: The usual cables, and stock Jagwire setup on the Epic. Also Gore cables on my old hard tail. Bike Setup: Specialized Epic Comp, Upgraded to SRAM X.0 rear/X.9 Triggers. Upgraded from stock XTR.
