RESET Cable Splitters are designed to separate brake and gear cables of bicycles and tandems with separatable or foldable frames. Due to the separateable cables a compact packing volume can be obtained without damaging the cables and their outer casing during transport.

RESET Cable Splitters clamp the cables by the using a hardened set screw with an extra pressure plate. This results in a secure and careful clamping of the cable.

RESET Cable Splitters are protected against unexpected disengagement through vibrations with an O-ring located between the thread and cap.

RESET Cable Splitters are made from stainless steel on the set screw end and 7075 aluminum on the opposite end.

Kit Includes: (2) Shift Cable Separators (1) Brake Cable Separator (1) Allen Wrench, Retail Price $42.50
