KCNC DLC Derailleur Cable

Detail
KCNC has made a dramatic improvement over traditional cable design with an extremely low friction and very durable coating. This coating is a mix of DLC (Diamond like carbon) and other compounds. The result is an incredibly slick cable with a coating that cannot be scratched off. The finish is dark brown with a subtle glitter-like sheen.

Normal teflon coated cables possess low friction surfaces, but over time the coating wears off and gums up inside the housing, ultimately creating the problem they are attempting to solve by increasing friction. Low friction cables allow for trouble free operation of brakes and shifters by reducing "noise" in these cable systems and decreasing stress and wear on the user-end components.

These derailleur cables are designed for use with all modern road and mountain style shifters. Each package contains one cable and one black aluminum cable tip.
