The Odyssey Querzug Straddle Cable is a reliable replacement part designed to keep your cantilever or U-brake system performing at its best. As a key link between your brake arms, the straddle cable helps translate lever pull into strong, even braking power. Odyssey is well known in BMX and freestyle circles for durable, rider-tested components, and this cable follows that tradition with a straightforward, robust design that stands up to daily riding, street sessions, and park use.
This straddle cable is ideal when you are refreshing an older brake setup, fine-tuning cable length, or replacing a worn or frayed original. It is typically easy to install with basic tools and works with most standard cantilever and U-brake configurations that use a separate straddle wire. By ensuring smooth, consistent cable tension, it helps improve modulation and control at the lever, giving you more confidence when slowing down or feathering speed. Whether you are maintaining a classic BMX, a commuter with cantilever brakes, or a custom build, the Odyssey Querzug Straddle Cable is a small but essential upgrade that keeps your braking system responsive and dependable.
