The Shimano Polymer Coated Shift Cable Set is engineered to deliver exceptionally smooth, precise shifting with long-lasting low friction. Using the same polymer-coated stainless steel cables found in Dura-Ace 9000 and Ultegra 6800 groups, this set reduces shifting effort and improves consistency across the entire drivetrain. Pre-lubricated housing further enhances performance by minimizing drag and contamination over time.
This is an ideal replacement or upgrade for riders seeking factory-level shifting performance on Shimano road drivetrains.
