Jagwire Pro Brake Housing

Standard brake housing can compress slightly when you pull the lever, which creates a spongy feel. This compressionless housing uses a linear strand construction that resists that squish, resulting in a much firmer, more responsive lever feel and increased stopping power.

No, you should not use this for gear cables. This housing is specifically engineered for brake systems; using it for shifting will cause poor performance and potential safety issues because the construction is different for the tension requirements of derailleurs.

Yes, it is designed to work with both mechanical disc and rim brake systems. It is particularly effective for full-housing setups where you want to maintain consistent braking performance without the flex found in standard housing.

This 10-meter bulk roll includes 20 alloy lined end caps and 10 POP end caps, which covers the housing ends. You will still need to provide your own inner brake cables and the necessary cable cutters to trim the housing to your bike's specific length.

The Kevlar reinforcement helps maintain the structural integrity of the housing under high-tension braking. It prevents the housing from expanding or deforming, which ensures that all the force from your hand translates directly to the brake caliper.
