What is the Shimano stainless mountain brake cable for?

This is Shimano's 1.6mm x 2050mm stainless steel inner brake cable for MTB brake systems. The 1.6mm diameter is the standard for MTB brake cables, providing the strength and stiffness needed for the higher clamping forces used in mountain bike brake levers. Stainless construction resists the moisture and grit that MTB brake cables encounter on trail rides, maintaining consistent pull weight and preventing premature corrosion. At 2050mm it covers the full cable run on most MTB frames from lever to caliper.

1.6mm diameter, 2050mm length. Compatible with Shimano and most other MTB mechanical brake lever systems. Sold as a single cable. For use with compatible brake housing (not included).

FAQ

What is the difference between road and MTB brake cables?: MTB brake cables use a cylindrical end tip. Road cables use a pear (barrel) end tip. The two are not interchangeable. Using the wrong end style results in improper barrel seating and unreliable braking.

Is this cable compatible with non-Shimano MTB brake levers?: Yes. The 1.6mm cylindrical-end cable is the standard format used by Shimano MTB brake levers and most other MTB brake levers using a cylindrical-end barrel socket.

Does this cable include brake housing?: No. This is the inner cable only. Brake housing must be sourced separately and cut to match the routing path.

Best For

MTB riders maintaining a Shimano-equipped mountain bike who need a correct-spec OEM mountain brake cable for front or rear hydraulic-converted or mechanical disc/V-brake replacement.
