Restore your brakes to new condition with LifeLine Essential cablesets. As your cables corrode and wear, they can become stiff, gritty and less powerful. With corrosion resistant 19-strand stainless steel inners, precision brass ferrules, 3-core lined outer housing and cable 0-rings, LifeLine Essential Cablesets provide a smooth, responsive action to help you get the best from your brakes. Tools Needed for Installation

  • Cable cutters & crimps
  • 5/6mm Allen keys (for most Road brake sets)

Depending on your brake configuration, consult your lever and brake manufacturer’s guidelines for correct fitting of cables, tools needed, and required torque settings specific to your particular braking system.
