EZ-Handle Single End Straddle Cable

This wire connects the two arms of a cantilever brake system, allowing the main brake cable to pull both sides evenly. It is a critical component for ensuring your brakes engage symmetrically and provide consistent stopping power.

This is a standard 1.8mm diameter cable, which is compatible with the vast majority of traditional cantilever brake systems. As long as your brake setup requires a single-end anchor point, this cable should integrate seamlessly.

Straddle wires are considered a wear-and-tear item that should be replaced periodically to prevent cable fatigue or snapping. Buying in a 10-pack is a cost-effective way to keep spares on hand for routine maintenance or to service multiple bikes in your fleet.

Yes, the 330mm length is designed to be trimmed to fit your specific bike's geometry. You will need a proper cable cutter to shorten the wire to the exact length required for your brake setup.

You will need a sharp set of cable cutters to trim the wire to the correct length and a standard hex key or wrench to secure the cable anchor. It is a straightforward installation, but ensure you have a cable crimp tool or pliers to secure the end cap once the wire is cut.
