Die-extrusion removes the burrs and surface irregularities that create friction in shift cables. Jagwire runs each Stainless Steel Derailleur Cable through this process after pre-stretching the spiral-bound strands, producing a slick surface that moves smoothly through housing without requiring polymer coatings. The result is a cable that shifts cleanly out of the box and maintains that feel over time since there's no coating to wear off or contaminate the housing liner.

Stainless steel construction handles the demands of daily use and resists corrosion in wet conditions where galvanized cables would eventually rust. The 2300mm length covers most road and mountain bike setups with enough extra to route through full-length housing runs. Single-ended cable heads work with Shimano and SRAM shifters, and the weld-cut tail end threads through housing and derailleur pinch bolts without fraying.

The file box format keeps cables organized and accessible for shop use. Boxes stack on shelves or fit into Jagwire's file box organizer system, making inventory management straightforward when you're pulling cables regularly. Each box contains 100 cables, providing a cost-effective stock for service departments or mechanics who go through cables frequently.... Read More
