I am in the middle of placing an order, but being the noob I am, I am confused about gear cable again... Do all cables fit all shifters.. on the shop im looking at some say XT use or other but I cant find any that say SLX use.. so can I just use any?
thanks in advance

Yes. All gear cables are compatible.
Just don't try to use brake cable. That won't work.0 -
cheers for that, sometimes all these things can get confusing, deffo gear cables I am looking at though0

Anyone recommend ant brand of cable since I managed to snap the rear gear cable yesterday. Is it worth paying for the premium brands i.e Nokon, Jagwire, Avids over Shimano XT?0

SHimano is fine.0

XTR cables are thinner than normal cables and take longer to clog.. I'd only buy them if they are cheap though.0

well I ordered my cables and shifter and I thought to make my life easier I brought a Fourth hand tool, so now im all set (well when the postman gets here I will be) Now is there any guides on how to install gear cables for a complete novice. I googled it but i get part information, I was hoping there would be a step by step guide so I could hopefully read up on it before I have to do the job0
