Jagwire Shift Housing Segments

Shimano Shadow-type road derailleurs have a unique cable entry angle that requires a tighter, more flexible bend than standard housing can comfortably provide. These segments are engineered to handle that tight radius without kinking, ensuring your shifting remains crisp and consistent.

While they are specifically optimized for the geometry of Shimano Shadow-type road derailleurs, they are essentially 4mm low-compression housing. They will work with other systems, but the primary benefit of the added flexibility is really tailored to the specific cable path of the Shadow design.

The pack includes 10 pre-cut segments of 4mm CGX-SL housing, along with 10 sealed end caps and 10 housing connectors to join them to your existing cable system.

Yes, the CGX-SL construction is designed to be low-compression, which means the housing doesn't squish under tension. This translates to a more direct, tactile feel at the shifter and more precise indexing at the derailleur.

No, these are strictly for mechanical shift cables. They are not designed to handle the high pressures required for hydraulic brake systems.
