Shimano OT-RS900 Polymer Coated Gear Cable Set

The secret of the Shimano OT-RS900 Polymer Shift Cable Set is polymer coating that when viewed under a microscope looks like a series of tubes wrapped around the cable. This means less surface area rubbing the internal housing liner and it holds grease longer. Shimano has developed the special OT-RS900 cable housing. It is less stiff than the conventional OT-SP41 housing and is therefore better suited to the tight curve where the cable is routed from the frame to the rear derailleur. Polymer coated inner cables reduce the sliding resistance to achieve lighter and quick operation Stainless steel cable for anti-rust protection Cables are formed with curved surface for low friction Sealed end caps to minimize mud contamination SP41 is pre-lubricated with a special silicone grease for light-action shifting Outer housing: ∅4mm x 1700mm x 1, ∅4mm x 240mm x 1 Inner wire: ∅1.2mm x 2100mm x 1, ∅1.2mm x 1800mm x 1 End caps Rubber sealing boots About Shimano Established in Japan in 1921, Shimano is the worlds largest bicycle component manufacturer.
