smoothest cable around. Ridden and proven since the early 80’s. Unlike most generic cables with a BMX lug end and a road bike lug end, Slic Kables have a BMX Lug end and a Gyro lug end (on straight version) to use for dual lower cable/london mod set-ups. 2 sets of barrel adjusters (Gyro/M2 Lever version). The Linear Slic Kable is a major improvement that fills the gap between a straight cable and the Gyro®. The heavy duty Linear housing for tailwhips or barspins with a straight cable set-up. Linear cables let you twist the cable and continue consistent braking. The Linear and Slic name is being used to describe regular, inferior derailleur housing, and generic cables, like Kleenex for tissues. Unless its genuine Odyssey Linear Slic Kable, its not a Heavy-Duty BMX cable. Beware the imitators.
