Quality
Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Gear Cables. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Campagnolo Ultra Shift Gear & Brake Cable Set.
The first thing is material. Looking at what Campagnolo Ultra Shift Gear & Brake Cable Set is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.
Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Gear Cables. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.
There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Gear Cables. Brands like Campagnolo are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.
Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Gear Cables category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.
Comparing Prices
Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Gear Cables.
It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.
2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information.

- Description: Campagnolo Ultra Shift Gear & Brake Cable SetAll Campagnolo components are part of a unique integrated project. Every component is designed and realized to interact at one with the remaining components.The objective is to provide better-quality performance. Campagnolo cables are no exception. On the contrary, precisely because these provide the link between one component and another, the cables must be designed to interface solely with the components they connect. Campagnolo cables employ stainless steel inner wires and friction-resistant housings that are lubricated with special grease. Laboratory testing has shown that this solution provides unparalleled smoothness. Campagnolo cables maintain a constant friction value of 20-22 N at the most critical point, i.e. when the cable is actuated. A truly incredible value when one considers that some systems produced by other manufacturers exhibit values in the range of 130-140 N. Perfection is only achieved by paying attention to detail of which the Campagnolo cables are but one.Features:Front brake inner cable 1.6mm – 800mmFront brake outer cable 4.9mm – 580mmRear brake inner cable 1.6mm – 1600mmRear brake outer cable 4.9mm – 1250mmFront gear inner cable 1.2mm – 1600mmFront/rear gear outer cable 4.1mm – 680mmRear gear inner cable 1.2mm – 2000mmRear gear short cable 4.1mm – 325mmBuy Campagnolo Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
