Key Benefits for Unmatched Performance

Tired of spongy brake levers or the hassle of stopping your ride to adjust cable tension with tools? The SHIMANO SM-CB70 tensors solve this problem with elegant simplicity. Gain the confidence to tackle steep descents, technical cyclocross courses, or unpredictable city traffic by maintaining perfect brake feel at all times. The primary benefit is the ability to make micro-adjustments to compensate for inevitable cable stretch or brake pad wear while you ride, ensuring your braking power is always sharp and predictable. Furthermore, its integrated quick-release mechanism is a game-changer for maintenance and convenience. This feature allows you to open up your brake calipers instantly for fast and effortless wheel removal—no more deflating tires or struggling with tight clearances, making flat repairs or wheel swaps incredibly efficient.

Main Features of the SM-CB70 Adjuster

Designed with Shimano´s legendary attention to detail, the SM-CB70 boasts a range of features that set it apart as a must-have upgrade. Its sleek, inline design allows for seamless integration into your existing brake cable housing, positioned in a convenient location for easy access. The adjustment barrel provides a tactile, indexed ´click´ with each turn, giving you precise, measurable control over the tension so you can dial in the perfect feel. The most distinguished feature is the distinct quick-release lever, which can be operated with a single finger. This lever disengages the cable tension for maintenance or wheel swaps and re-engages it just as easily, returning to your exact previous setting without fail. These adjusters are built for exceptional durability and smooth operation, providing a reliable and long-lasting enhancement to any cable-actuated braking system.

While designated as a ´cyclocross adjuster,´ the versatility of the SHIMANO SM-CB70 extends far beyond the race course. It is an essential upgrade for road cyclists, gravel adventurers, long-distance tourers, and daily commuters using cantilever, V-brakes, or mechanical disc brakes. For cyclocross racers, it provides the competitive edge needed to adjust for mud build-up or pad wear mid-lap. For tourers, it offers peace of mind and easy field serviceability. For every rider, it represents a significant improvement in convenience, control, and safety.
