The removal of traditional mechanical cables in favour of electrical wires not only eliminates poor shifting caused by contaminates, corrosion and stretching, but provides effortless gear shifts.
Coming complete with all you need to replace your bike's gear cables, the Shimano stainless steel shift cable boasts an outer casing that has a special construction process. This makes for an axially stiff outer casing that transmits shifting movements accurately and quickly. Also, the outer casing is lined with a polymer sheath and lubricated internally along its length with low-friction silicone, assisting with the smooth operation of the inner gear cables.
This is perfect if you wish to run multiple satellite shifters or simply tidy up the routing of your internal Di2 cables. Works with the SM-JC40 external or SM-JC41 internal junction box.
Designed to protect your externally routed Shimano Di2 cables.
Fitting new gears or completely overhauling your gear cabling couldn't be easier, as this Shimano Dura-Ace gear cable kit comes with everything you need in one pack. It includes 1.2mm polymer coated inner wires (1x 2100mm, 1x 1800mm), SP41 outer casing for a complete bike (1x 1700mm) and all the required cable end caps. The polymer coated stainless steel inner cable on this Shimano Dura-Ace gear cable set leaves a smooth surface for low friction and reduced sliding resistance providing a lighter quicker shifting operation. The outer casing is lubricated internally along its length with low-friction silicone grease to reduce cable friction. Also, SP 41 outer casing uses a special directional wound construction process that makes for an axially stiff cable that transmits shifting movements accurately and quickly. Plus, this outer casing is lined with a polymer sheath to assist with the smooth operation of the inner cable.
Die-extruded PTFE coated inner wire leaves a smooth surface for low friction in use, and stainless steel provides smooth shifting and higher corrosion resistance.
To ensure that the signal goes from the shifter to the derailleurs, the reliability of the electric cable has been proven by repeated field tests in various riding conditions, including extreme temperatures, rain,mud, and cobble stone roads. The removal of traditional mechanical cables in favour of electrical wires not only eliminates poor shifting caused by contaminates, corrosion and stretching, but provides effortless gear shifts. Dura-Ace Di2 requires 2 cables: a handlebar cable set to connect the shifters to a battery indicator junction box or FlightDeck, and the other to connect the handlebar cable to the battery and derailleurs.
Polymer-coated inner brake cables for the ultimate in smooth braking performance, designed to complement the top-of-the-range Shimano Dura-Ace groupsets. Manufacture Product Code: 63Z 9895
The Shimano SM-CA70 gear cable adjusters are high-grade barrel adjusters which can be installed inline on SP41 outer gear cable to allow fine adjustment of gear indexing.
Fitting new gears or completely overhauling your gear cabling couldn't be easier as the Shimano Optislick gear cables have everything you need in one pack. Optislick is electrically coated to the stainless steel inner wire leaves a smooth surface for low friction and reduced sliding resistance. The outer casing in the Shimano Optislick gear cable set is lubricated internally along its length with low-friction silicone grease to reduce cable friction. The SP41 outer cable uses a special directional wound construction process that makes for an axially stiff cable that transmits shifting movements accurately and quickly. It's also lined with a polymer sheath to assist with the smooth operation of the gear inner cable.
Shimano's outer gear cable casing is lubricated internally to provide low-friction for smooth shifting on your road or mountain bike. This polymer lined outer gear cable casing is for use with 1.2mm inner cables.
