As a crucial component in your drivetrain´s communication line, this premium replacement set is engineered to deliver unparalleled precision and smoothness, ensuring you never miss a gear when it matters most. Whether you´re tackling a steep technical climb, accelerating out of a corner, or setting up for a descent, this kit provides the reliability and performance demanded by serious riders. It is the perfect upgrade or maintenance solution for high-performance Shimano MTB drivetrains.

Experience Unparalleled Shifting Smoothness

The core of this kit´s superior performance lies in its advanced technology designed to minimize friction. The stainless steel inner cable features a unique polymer coating that creates an incredibly slick surface, allowing it to glide effortlessly within the housing. This dramatically reduces the effort required at the shifter, resulting in a lighter, more responsive feel. This benefit is especially noticeable on modern mountain bikes with complex internal cable routing and full-suspension frames, where tight bends can introduce significant drag with standard cables.

Precision and Durability for the Trail

This complete kit is engineered for longevity and consistent performance in the harsh conditions of off-road riding. The renowned OT-SP41 outer housing is pre-lubricated along its entire length with a special low-friction silicone grease, which works in tandem with the polymer-coated inner wire to provide a sealed, low-friction system. This design helps to keep contaminants like dirt, mud, and water out, preserving the smooth action for longer and reducing the frequency of maintenance. The result is precise, consistent indexing and the elimination of hesitation or "ghost shifting," giving you the confidence to shift under load and focus on the trail ahead.

Complete Replacement Sets for a Professional Installation

This product is supplied in comprehensive sets to ensure you have everything required for a complete and professional overhaul of your shifting system. The kit includes a generous length of both the polymer-coated inner cable and the pre-lubricated OT-SP41 outer housing, which can be cut to size for a perfect fit on any frame size, from small hardtails to extra-large full-suspension bikes. Also included are all the necessary sealed ferrules and end caps to protect the system from the elements and ensure a clean, durable installation.
