Purchased At:
airborne.net
Strengths:
High quality housing, ferrules, cables. Brake and derailleur cables included.
Weaknesses:
Precut housing.
Bottom Line:
This is an excellent cableset for the price. The problem is that the housing is precut for Airborne hardtails. I ended up combining front and rear housings to make make up one rear derailleur housing for my Giant NRS. If I was buying an Airborne frame I definitely would buy the Airborne cableset. Otherwise forget it.
