‘Featherlight’ cable and brake line upgrades for Tracer 700

British manufacturer Venhill Engineering, internationally well known for its leading OE replacement ‘Featherlight’ cable and brake line programme, has added brake line and control cable upgrade kits for the popular Yamaha Tracer 700. 



A direct replacement for the factory-fitted versions, Venhill’s ‘Featherlight’ throttle and clutch cable specifications “offer improved performance and durability, yet require less maintenance than the original equipment”.
Made in the UK using marine-grade stainless steel inner wire running through a PTFE liner for minimum friction and lighter action for enhanced feel and control, the riding experience is said to be improved with reduced pressure on the hands, especially in stop-start traffic and on long rides.
Each cable is ‘bird-caged' – a special process applied to the end of the inner cable wire which allows solder to penetrate the weave of the cable, making the bond with the nipple much stronger. The PTFE lining also removes the need for lubrication.
Venhill Powerhose Plus braided brake lines feature a heat resistant DuPont Teflon core which reduces softening, expansion and deformation, resulting in more efficient and reliable fluid flow to the calipers and increased braking force compared to the originals.
Stainless steel braid is wrapped around the core to prevent further pressure expansion. All Venhill braided brake hoses exceed German TÜV and American DOT requirements, with every hose that leaves their UK factory pressure tested to 1500psi.
