Tektro 1277A Front Brake Cable Hanger with Adjuster - Black

I recommend this product

Well made product that makes brake adjustment a breeze. Easy to fit with basic tools and looks great.

I recommend this product

looks clean, well made.

has an adjuster which will raise the straddle wire as the brakes wear.

this great if you have no adjuster, but beware, narrow cantilevers need the straddle wire to be as low as possible to maximise mechanical advantage.


wide cantilevers are not sensitive to straddle height.

also - no cable catcher so best used with shimano M style cantilevers or mudguards.

if the straddle wire ever hits the tyre then game over.

I recommend this product

Not quite as straightforward to fit as I imagined.
My fork crown was drilled out with a smaller size thread than the fixing bolt supplied,
and I also had to make an additional spacer because the hanger bracket fouled my Crane Creek Headset bearing.
