Description: SpecificationsLength: 73 mmThe wire measures 73 mm in length, ideal for connecting cantilever brakes, ensuring effective braking performance by creating the proper tension between brake arms.Diameter: 1.6 mmThe 1.6 mm diameter provides enough strength and durability to handle the force applied during braking without stretching or breaking.Color: Silver/BlackThe wire features a two-tone design: the primary wire is silver, while the attachment points or ends may have black accents, providing a clean and professional look on your bicycle.FunctionalityReplacement Link Wire for Cantilever Brakes:This wire is designed specifically for cantilever brake systems, which are often found on mountain bikes, touring bikes, and some hybrid bikes. The wire serves as a vital link between the two cantilever arms, ensuring that both sides engage the rim effectively when the brake lever is pulled.Z-Type Design:The Z-type refers to the shape of the wire, which is engineered to provide optimal alignment and tension in the braking system. It allows the wire to fit securely and ensures the smooth operation of the brakes by minimizing play or slack in the braking system.Material and DurabilityMaterial: SteelMade from high-quality steel, the wire offers excellent tensile strength and resistance to bending or breaking under high-stress braking situations.Finish: Zinc Coating (for Silver color)The silver section is zinc-coated, providing corrosion resistance and ensuring that the wire remains free from rust, which is important for long-term use in various weather conditions.InstallationEasy Replacement:The wire is designed as a direct replacement for worn or damaged link wires on cantilever brake systems, making installation straightforward. With basic tools, it can be installed quickly by threading it through the brake system's components and securing it properly.CompatibilityBrake Type: Cantilever BrakesThis wire is specifically made for cantilever-style brake systems, commonly used on older mountain bikes, touring bikes, and some cyclocross bikes. It ensures that both arms of the brake operate in sync to apply even pressure on the rim.Universal Fit:The wire is compatible with most cantilever brake systems, making it a versatile replacement part for various bike brands and models.Color and AestheticsColor Scheme: Silver/BlackThe sleek silver and black color scheme gives the wire a minimalist and clean appearance, allowing it to blend well with most bicycle frames and brake setups.Key Features Corrosion Resistance: The zinc-coated finish protects the wire from environmental damage, including moisture and debris, extending its lifespan. Durable Construction: With a sturdy 1.6 mm diameter, this wire is strong enough to handle the tension required for effective braking without stretching or snapping. Precision Engineering: The Z-type shape is specifically designed to fit cantilever brakes securely, ensuring reliable and smooth braking performance.
