VENHILL Front Brake Cable

VENHILL offers this brake cable. Not every bike has hydraulic brakes: on a drum brake (minibikes, older bikes, some quads) or on a quad’s parking brake, a cable does the job.

Why a new brake cable?

The benefits:

• A lighter lever and braking that is easier to modulate.
• A brake that releases fully: no rubbing to heat up and wear the linings.
• An inexpensive part that saves you from losing the brake in the middle of a ride.

Why choose VENHILL?

Venhill was founded in 1970 in Dorking, England, by trials and motocross rider Chris Ventris; its cables and hoses are made in-house, and every Powerhose line (stainless braid, minimum burst pressure 12,000 psi) is pressure-tested under water before dispatch.

When should you replace this part?

Frayed strands, a split or crushed outer, a stiff lever or a brake that stays on: change the cable before it snaps.
