Jagwire Ripcord Pro Teflon Slick Road Bicycle Brake Shifter Cables - 1.1mm x 2300mm

Friction in a derailleur system can mean the difference between a well-functioning shifter and one that continues to missshift. Jagwire maintains very specific standards for friction and tests hundreds of inner wires every week to ensure these high standards are met and maintained. Lubricated and pre-stretched during the manufacturing process; Jagwire inner wires will provide miles and miles of performance. Teflon(R) Coated Inner Wires. Coating slick stainless inner wires with a thin layer of Teflon(R) not only reduces friction by up to 30% it also extends the overall life of the wire. The Teflon(R) coating helps the inner wire retain its strength and locks-in internal lubrication making the wires optimal for use in extreme cold or hot climates. TEFLON(R) ORIGINAL TRADEMARK. DuPont has licensed the use of the Teflon(R) trademark to Jagwire. Die extruded stainless steel and coated with Teflon(R). Ultra low friction for optimum performance. Best used with lined or nosed end caps
