About Gear Cables
Good quality gear cables will have a dramatic effect on the feel and function of your drivetrain. Fully sealed systems are particularly good for MTB's used off-road or your winter bike as they prevent the ingress of water and muck, they have the benefit of requiring minimal maintenance, which is always nice. A good quality gear cable will provide a smoother lever feel, along with sharper and more precise shifting.

Magazine reviews for Gore Bike Wear RideOn Sealed Low Friction Derailleur Kit
Review from Dirt
If there's one thing you really should treat your bike to this year it's a set of Gore sealed cables. Ignore any other cables that claim to be sealed, these are the real McCoy and the difference they make is unbelievable. From the moment you fit them they feel silky smooth, but the incredible thing is that even after a year or more of being festooned in mud they still feel smoother than a regular cable. Despite using them for years we still can't get over how good they are. Each set contains enough gubbins for both front and rear mechs, and if you're still using cable brakes they also do a brake version. One word of warning though, do make sure you actually read the fitting instructions because if you get it wrong they won't work as well as they should.
In conclusion...
Excellent, smooth cables from Gore.

Buy if you want great feeling, longer lasting UK-friendly cables... probably the ultimate UK transmission upgrade.

Review from Bikeradar
The more expensive of two new versions of Gore's low-friction gear cables makes shifting noticeably smoother. In fact, it's the smoothest system we've tried, especially around tight angles, which makes them a good choice for a time trial bike.
This is the Sealed Low Friction version, which uses a liner to protect the inner cable and Gore's GRUB seals. The cheaper Low Friction version does away with the liner but is just as smooth and is the cable of choice on SRAM's top-end Red system. Gore recommends the sealed system for off-road riding and the standard low friction system for the road.
The original version of these cables was discontinued in 2003, but Gore says clamoring fans forced it to take another look at bike cables. The original system featured a cable wrapped in a sheath of Gore-Tex Teflon membrane with an additional Gore-tex sheath to keep out the elements. The slipperiness of the Gore liner made it an ideal cable coating and those original cables were good but tricky to set up. If they did get contaminated they could be a pain as the Gore-Tex sheath had a tendency to unfurl.
The new cables are so much better. The Gore liner is fused, we think (Gore won't tell us), to the inner cable so there's no problem cutting it or with it becoming detached from the inner.
In conclusion...
The smoothest shifting cable – and maintenance-free too

In conclusion...
Pick of the best, Eurobike: GORE™ RideOn® Cable Systems provided the answer we were looking for – a sealed and almost frictionless shifting system that's basically plug-and-play.
