Jagwire Sport Derailleur Housing

Yes, this housing is designed to work seamlessly with both Shimano and SRAM shifting systems.

While linear strand housing is stiffer than coiled housing, it is engineered to balance structural integrity with enough flexibility to handle standard cable routing bends without kinking.

No, the internal liner is pre-lubricated during the manufacturing process. Adding extra grease or oil can actually attract dirt and increase friction over time, so it is best to install it as is.

No, this is specifically designed for derailleur systems. Brake housing requires a different, compressionless construction to handle the high forces of braking, and using this for brakes would be unsafe.

Compressionless housing prevents the outer casing from squishing under the tension of your shift cable. This ensures that the movement at your shifter translates directly to the derailleur, resulting in more precise and responsive gear changes.
