Description
Product Overview
The Gionfe brake cable housing is engineered for cyclists who demand consistent stopping power. Its outer sheath is crafted from lightweight aluminum, offering excellent rigidity while resisting corrosion. Inside, a PVC liner acts as a low‑friction guide, and the core consists of premium spiral steel wires that deliver high tensile strength and abrasion resistance. With a nominal wall thickness of 2.5 mm and an outside diameter of 5 mm, the 3‑meter length provides ample reach for multiple bike setups. Each package includes the housing, 12 five‑millimeter end caps, and cable end caps for a complete, ready‑to‑install solution.
Usage
Designed for mountain bikes, road bikes, folding bicycles and general recreational cycling, this cable housing excels in both demanding off‑road conditions and everyday city rides. The flexible yet durable construction allows easy routing through frame tubes and brake levers, while the PVC liner reduces friction for smoother brake actuation. Ideal for replacing worn cables on 2‑3 bicycles, the 3 m length ensures you have enough material for complex frame geometries without the need for splicing.

FAQ
What bike types are compatible with this cable housing?
The housing is suitable for mountain bikes, road bikes, folding bikes and most recreational bicycles that use standard brake cable systems.
Do I need additional tools to install the end caps?
No special tools are required; the included end caps snap onto the housing ends, providing a secure fit and protecting the cable from wear.
How does the PVC liner improve brake performance?
The PVC liner creates a low‑friction surface that allows the steel wire to move smoothly, resulting in more precise and consistent braking.
Is this housing resistant to corrosion?
Yes, the aluminum outer and PVC inner components are both highly resistant to moisture and rust, extending the lifespan of the cable assembly.
Can I use this housing to replace cables on multiple bikes?
Absolutely. The 3 meter length provides enough material to replace cables on two to three bicycles, making it a cost‑effective solution for families or bike shops.
