  • Do Campagnolo use the same cables as Shimano? And is it different gear and brake cables? Just fallen into the cable rabbit hole - only found out today that there are different cables for MTB and road....

    Looking for some white ones to go my new build.

  • The cable heads are different as well. Shimano ones are slightly larger and thus will not fit properly.

    The Campagnolo CG-ER600 set comes with all of the cables you need to do a bike, works well, lasts a long time and is honestly very good value compared to other cable sets. It also comes in white (CG-ER600W).

    For what it's worth, Campagnolo also introduced a new 'The Maximum Smoothness' gear cable set with their 12-speed groupsets, which people on Weight Weenies say are good but which I haven't tried because they are wildly expensive and teflon-coated (the coating can deteriorate inside the housing over time, eventually impeding function), and because my normal Campagnolo cables continue to work well.
