Description
BOX ONE NANO BRAKE CABLE KIT
Product Overview
The Box One Nano Brake Cable Kit is a high-performance brake cable system featuring Concentric housing with aramid fiber-wrapped aluminum/steel linear wires, PTFE-coated Nano Cable inner wire, and anodized aluminum Kollars ferrules. Weighing 70g and including 79 inches of housing, it's designed to minimize friction and weight while maximizing braking performance.
Key Features
- Concentric housing with aramid fiber-wrapped linear wires – Aluminum and steel linear wire construction wrapped with aramid fiber provides high strength and resistance to compression while reducing weight compared to traditional coiled housing
- PTFE-coated Nano Cable inner wire – Teflon (PTFE) coating on the cable reduces friction for smoother cable movement and improved brake modulation and power
- Anodized aluminum Kollars ferrules – Low-friction aluminum ferrules reduce cable drag at housing ends compared to standard brass or plastic ferrules
- 79 inches of housing included – Sufficient length for most BMX racing frame and fork setups with room for trimming to exact length
- Color-matched hardware – Ferrules and end caps match cable finish for coordinated appearance

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases
This cable kit is compatible with standard BMX brake systems including V-brakes, linear pull brakes, and caliper brakes that use traditional cable actuation. Not compatible with hydraulic brake systems. The 79-inch housing length accommodates most frame sizes and routing configurations; trim to required length during installation. Ideal for weight-conscious racers who want maximum braking performance with minimal friction and reduced cable weight. The PTFE-coated cable and aluminum ferrules reduce drag for improved brake feel and responsiveness. The aramid-reinforced linear housing resists compression better than standard coiled housing, maintaining consistent brake performance. Best suited for riders who prioritize high-end brake performance and are willing to invest in premium cable components. Note: Ships direct from manufacturer if located in the USA, which may result in separate delivery from other items.
