Description
Brake cables are a small component with an outsized effect on riding confidence. The Alligator LY-BST17UB Brake Inner Cable is a straightforward, quality replacement wire designed for riders who want reliable, consistent brake feel — whether navigating Pune's traffic, descending the Ghats, or maintaining a well-tuned commuter in Chennai or Delhi. Cobbled Climbs is the authorised retailer for Tektro in India.
Use Cases
Daily training. Reliable use across Indian training conditions — heat, humidity, and rough tarmac.
Race day. Performance-grade construction for competitive efforts.
Long rides. Built for full-day rides across Western Ghats, Sahyadri, or Nilgiri climbs.
Our Take
At Rs. 190, this is one of the most cost-effective maintenance upgrades you can make to any rim or mechanical disc brake setup. Indian riding — monsoon humidity, dusty Rajasthani roads, steep Leh descents — accelerates cable wear faster than riders expect. Replacing brake cables annually, particularly post-monsoon, restores that sharp, confident lever feel that ageing cables quietly steal. Pair with fresh housing for the full benefit.
Sizing for Indian Riders
Brake inner cables are not sized by rider body type — they are selected by cable head shape and brake lever type. The key question is whether your levers use a barrel-head or mushroom-head fitting. Confirm your brake lever's cable anchor type before ordering. If you ride Shimano, SRAM, or Tektro levers and are unsure, contact Cobbled Climbs for guidance before purchasing.
Compatibility Notes
The LY-BST17UB is a brake inner cable designed for rim brakes and mechanical disc brakes. It is not suitable for hydraulic brake systems. Verify your lever's cable head requirement — barrel or mushroom — matches this cable's fitment. Compatible with standard cable housing. Use cycling-specific cable cutters to avoid fraying. All Alligator products sold at Cobbled Climbs are 100% genuine.
Pairs Well With
For a complete brake cable refresh, pair with quality brake cable housing, cable end caps to finish the installation cleanly, a dedicated cable cutter for clean cuts, and a light cable lubricant to keep things moving smoothly through the housing, especially during monsoon season.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Alligator LY-BST17UB Brake Inner Cable best used for?
It is best used as a replacement brake inner cable for rim brakes or mechanical disc brakes. It suits riders looking to restore sharp, responsive braking feel during routine maintenance — especially post-monsoon in Indian conditions where humidity and rain accelerate cable corrosion and drag. It is not suitable for hydraulic brake systems.
How do I know if this brake cable fits my levers?
Brake inner cables are chosen by cable head shape, not rider size. Common types are barrel-head and mushroom-head. Check your brake lever's cable anchor to identify which you need. Shimano and Tektro levers typically use a barrel head. If you are unsure, contact Cobbled Climbs before ordering — our team can help you confirm the correct fitment.
Will this cable hold up in Indian monsoon conditions and heat?
Cable lifespan is affected by monsoon humidity, rain exposure, and road grime — all common across Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, and Kolkata during the monsoon season. Annual replacement post-monsoon is strongly recommended for any regularly ridden bike. Applying a small amount of cable-compatible lubricant at housing entry points and rinsing the bike after wet rides will extend cable life.
How does a brake inner cable replacement compare to a full cable and housing kit?
Replacing just the inner cable improves brake feel when the cable itself is frayed or corroded but the housing is still clean inside. However, if the housing is kinked, cracked, or moisture-contaminated — common after Indian monsoon seasons — replacing both cable and housing together delivers a far more noticeable improvement in braking response and lever pull consistency.
Is the Alligator LY-BST17UB worth the price in India, and what warranty does it include?
At Rs. 190, this cable represents strong value for routine maintenance. Regular cable replacement is one of the most affordable ways to maintain safe, predictable braking. For warranty queries, contact Cobbled Climbs directly — all Alligator products stocked are 100% genuine and sourced through authorised channels. Free delivery applies on orders above Rs. 2,500, and cash on delivery is available nationwide.
