Review: Worked well - I bought these a little more than two years ago because my rear shift cable began fraying. Two days ago, I had to replace it. I track my rides and maintenance pretty closely. The cable lasted 26 months and a little more than 5,000 miles. The area I cycle has quite a bit of terrain change due to multiple stream beds. I like to keep my cadence in the 85-90 range so I shift quite often. Given this, I am very satisfied with how long these last and I now have a baseline to know when to replace it a bit before it fails. Review: Always choose the better shifter cable, it's worth the investment. - I had a problem with my left shifter and that's cause I chose to use a cheap shift cable which made me think I needed a new shifter. What I did was lubricate the shifter and try to get as much gunk out of it and then re-lubricate it. Once I pull on the new Shimano road shift cable I immediately thought of the quote "You get what you pay for!" Duh!, Sure we've heard it all before, still our false pride gets in the way and I make mistakes, after all I'm only human, right? Well, gotta love the cable housing, very easy to cut and now my shifter works great, which makes me a very happy camper. All in well in Brooklyn again, I can go out and enjoy some of this great weather we're having now. ## Features - Works with Shimano or SRAM - Stainless Steel PTFE coated cables - 4mm SIS-SP41 housing - Includes end caps and ferrules ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004XUQ1UQ | | Best Sellers Rank | #92,413 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #16 in Bike Shift Cables & Housing | | Brand | SHIMANO | | Brand Name | SHIMANO | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 5,008 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00689228605022, 04524667605027 | | Included Components | Gear cable | | Item Dimensions L x W | 0.83"L x 0.01"W | | Item Length | 3.8 meters | | Item Type Name | Gear cable | | Item Weight | 4 ounces | | Manufacturer | Shimano | | Material | Stainless Steel | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Nominal Wall Thickness | 2 millimeters | | Outside Diameter | 1 centimeters | | Product Dimensions | 0.83"L x 0.01"W | | UPC | 784427762740 689228605022 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SHIMANO - **Color:** Black - **Item Length:** 3.8 meters - **Item Weight:** 4 ounces - **Manufacturer:** Shimano - **Material:** Stainless Steel - **Nominal Wall Thickness:** 2 millimeters - **Outside Diameter:** 1 centimeters - **Product Dimensions:** 0.83"L x 0.01"W - **UPC:** 784427762740 689228605022 ## Images ![Shimano Road Gear Cable Set, Steel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Fb3zUtVZL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked well *by C***G on September 19, 2024* I bought these a little more than two years ago because my rear shift cable began fraying.

What I did was lubricate the shifter and try to get as much gunk out of it and then re-lubricate it. Once I pull on the new Shimano road shift cable I immediately thought of the quote "You get what you pay for!"

They were essentially identical kits, but I liked the Shimano housing and cable better for its quality and how easily the cable moved through the housing. It was also less than half the price of the other. By coincidence the housing was the perfect length and I didn't need to cut it. It's important to note that though the box says Road cables, the ends on the cables are for flat bar shifters such as those on mountain bikes and hybrid bikes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shimano Road Gear Cable Set, Steel - SHIMANO Universal Standard Brake Cable Set, For MTB or Road Bikes --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/1712701-shimano-road-gear-cable-set-steel](https://www.desertcart.be/products/1712701-shimano-road-gear-cable-set-steel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
