Look to be pretty good value at £45 for a full set? What've been people's experiences with them?

I've been using Yakuza stuff for a while now - great for 3 finger braking

Yokozuna is a 'top-tier' Sumo, so Yokozuna brake cables are 'top-tier' cables; I guess this is the marketing in the name (they're a Japanese brand).

What's '3 finger braking' when it's at home?

I can't get the link to work 😕 😕

Go over to Weight Weenies, do a search for Yokozuna and there's quite a few pages to read. Especially the discussion thread on Yokozuna Cable Housing.

Sorry about the linkey-thing not working!
