I put Goodridge Steel Braided Cables on 7 or 8 years ago (dual break setup) and they've been great. Good cables, no problems at all. Probably cost me around $300+.

I was browsing through some post and saw this one. I am only putting in my 2 cents because I use Magnum cables and lines on my own bike. The shipping time depnds on where you are, but their build time is pretty quick. 3 to 5 day, but they usually ship the next day after confirming your order. I'm in NY and I got mine in 3 days.

Recently changed my handlebars so I needed to switch all the cables and lines, and went with the Magnum Black Pearl. Ordered and received them in a couple days. Great quality and look amazing.

if you do not want to POP for them... i used expandable wire coverings and made my own... looks insane!!!!
and cost me like 10 bucks to do every wire and line on the bike (clutch and throttle included)
you can get expandable and side entry from cable organizer.com

i use it on every build i do!

^^^Cool idea.


I used Magnum Shielding and was very impressed with the quality of cable. It's a bit pricey. Think I paid about $270 for all mine a couple months ago. That being said, it's still cheaper than Harley cables, and the finish is much better. I remember my dealer wanting me to buy their cables, and when I told them no and showed them what I got, they agreed they looked better than Harley ones. Good luck!


Edit: Another great plus with Magnum Shielding is that if you think that any of the cables are too long after install, you can ship them back and they'll take length off them for $10 a cable. Thought that was a solid deal.
