Brake cable guides for 5.6 mm cable housing — aluminum and steel construction Key benefits Cleaner, more reliable braking: Optimized cable routing prevents housing from tangling or shifting, making brake adjustments easier and keeping braking performance consistent. Safer ride: Stable cable alignment reduces unwanted housing movement, improving brake response and overall control. Durable yet lightweight: Aluminum and steel materials resist outdoor wear while keeping added weight minimal, ideal for regular use on larger bicycles. Versatile compatibility: Specifically designed for 5.6 mm cable housing and suitable for both brake and gear cable routing, supporting smooth shifting and braking across a range of bike setups. What this solves Eliminates cable snags and uneven housing that lead to imprecise braking or frequent readjustments. Reduces maintenance time by keeping cables properly aligned and protected from abrasion and the elements. Preserves a tidy, efficient cable layout that contributes to predictable performance and rider confidence. Features Designed for 5.6 mm cable housing to fit common brake and gear housings used on larger bikes. Combined aluminum and steel build for corrosion resistance, strength at contact points, and low weight. Keeps housing motion-controlled to maintain consistent cable path and reliable brake tuning. Typical applications Mountain bikes and gravel bikes with longer cable runs where stable routing prevents rub and keeps brakes responsive. Touring or commuter bikes that face varied weather and heavy use, where durable guides reduce maintenance and protect cables. Large-frame bicycles that use 5.6 mm housing and benefit from reinforced routing to maintain consistent gear and brake performance. Why choose this guide Practical, focused design that directly improves brake and gear function without added bulk. Matches the common 5.6 mm housing standard so you get predictable compatibility. Built to withstand outdoor conditions while keeping the system light and efficient. Specifications Compatibility: 5.6 mm cable housing Materials: Aluminum and steel Function: Brake and gear cable guidance, prevents housing movement and tangling This cable guide is a straightforward upgrade for riders who want cleaner cable routing, stable brake alignment, and durable components without adding unnecessary weight.
