i haven't even gone on a typical ride yet and these are already killing my frame. I'm just gonna switch to something else. Probably the worst purchase I've made for my bike.
Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:Seems like a bomb-proof system, good concept
Product Weaknesses:EXTREMELY ABRASIVE HOUSING!!! I turned the bars twice and had cable rub just from that... disappointing... i don't really want to leave these on my ride
My Bike:05 GT Avalanche stock except Marzocchi MX Pro, Avid BB7's, LX M580 crank and some other upgrade

Excellent! I bought these from Jenson to go with the Hayes mechs I put on my KHS 304 and I am vary happy I did! They are smoother than warm butter on a bald turtle, and tougher than your dad. I have put them through rain, mud, AZ desert dust and heat, and they still look and perform great!
Product Used For: 3 Months
Product Strengths:Closed to outside junk, extremely durable sheath, very reliable and smooth!
Product Weaknesses:None so far!
My Bike:KHS 304 built up for trail/mild freeride with various aftermarket parts, incl. Hayes mechs.

Thomas a XC Rider from Ann Arbor, Mi United States writes:
I like these brake and derailleur cables for their price, ease of installation, and quality. I compare them to GORE Ride-on cables and think the GORE is a bit better (it's a more completely sealed system), but I probably won't buy GORE again because these are so much cheaper and work more than well enough for me. Also, if you break some part of this system, you can fix it, whereas if you cut the cable covering on a GORE setup, you have to replace the whole covering. They're both great, really.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:Low price
Good quality housing
Good quality cables
Product Weaknesses:Special ferrules don't always fit easily into braze-on housing stops. A bit of filing can remedy this in any situation. Red color may not be everyone's favorite.
My Bike:Yeti XC bike
S-Works 'cross bike
