Niro-Glide Ceramic Turbo shift inner cable 1,1mm with Brompton nipple, stainless steel
Niro-Glide stainless steel shift inner cable 1,1mm with Brompton nipple and PFAS free ceramic coating for reduced friction, 220 cm long.
Brompton only sells complete brake and shift cables sets with outer housing included, but not just the inner shift cable. Which is annoying in cases where you want to use a different color housing or just have to replace the inner cable during a repair whith a frayed cable end. Both manufacturers from which I could purchase shift cables with the right size nipple stopped making them, so I'm excited to have found this one and it's made in Germany so that's a nice bonus as we need more bike parts to be made in Europe again. And it's free of nasty forever chemicals, known as Teflon (PFAS/PFOA), which should be banned completely.
Niro Glide says the following:
All NIRO-GLIDE CERAMIC TURBO cables are sealed with the special high-performance WELDTITE© CERAMIC oil. This special lubricant has perfect properties. With its ceramic particles, it ensures extremely pressure-resistant and long-lasting lubrication in all weather conditions. Whether in rain or frost, the seal enables up to 14,000 strokes with precise shifting and braking.
