I ran this cable back when I had a straight cable, its a great housing. The cable doesnt get any harder to pull until about the 3rd time spinning around the bars.. worth the extra money if you run a straight cable, or even dual brake cables on the bottom

i think this is the best cable out there, its normal price and has a super strong outter shell. It's hard to cut through to set up but well worth it, my one will spin four times without locking the brakes at all. I think its as good as the nokon but at a fration of the price. Comes in a load of colours, the cable hasnt ever stretched on me or frayed.

Very nice cable.. Not does ti work very good with its crazy design... But when u turn ur bars a full 360 your brakes work perfect... Its pretty crazy how the did this... I will have to say htough, the only problems I have with them are the little blal on the end of the wires that go into the brake lever, It migh tbe me, but the always come off.. lol... I think its just me... Doesnt seem ot happen to other folks.. I jsu prolly put it in wonrg.. Well this is a really nice cable and would choose no other...

great line...i got this after snapping my gyro lines 4 time in one month. it is really smooth and gets your brakes dialed!i have a white rim with all of the paint melting off and it still has one hell of a good braking power to it...i love it!

This housing is great. I dont do barspins but I still have one since if your bars get wraped up after a bail it can cause your stuff to get messed up. So run it for that. This one has lasted me a while and I have had no problems, I have heard of people having problems with it breaking right near the ends. But I have yet to see that in person. So i cant really comment on that.

These are the best linear cables. They last the longest and are the smoothest i've felt/seen/had. Plus they come in like every color!

Definatley the one to get, but the animal linear cavle is also worth looking at. There in't much of a difference though

after riding the Slic cable for a few years i moved on to this cable. Superior pull,smooth,strong. Its so well put together that it will take you at least 5 mins to cut it but its well worth it.
