Can I cut this to use for my front brake?

Surely can. I cut mine for the back brake. The two ends are the same so either one can attach to the brake handle.

Yes, there is a metal core in the cable housing so you will need a cut off tool or a hacksaw.

I actually cut an end off and used just the cable and not the housing for my front brake. The housing can be cut if you remove the cable first.

Yes, it is recommended to cut with a bicycle cable cuttter, but if you have a hacksaw and are careful you can cut with the cable housing and then file the end smooth.

Probably not. It is used to keep the rear brakes from locking up before the front.

If you don't cut it, you'll have an awkward turn, it's not really made for turns. If I were you, I'd cut it and solder a small piece of low voltage wire to connect the two halves.

You could do that with no problems. You would probably want to burn/melt the end you cut to keep it from fraying which isn't a big deal.

Yes with a cutting wheel and finish it off with a file and sand paper. Good luck

You can. However anything thicker like foam core is not possible. It really is a matter of wanting to manipulate what is being cut, and with this type of blade, it is not possible.

You could but the cut would be very rough - a drop saw or even a fine toothed hand saw with a mitre box would give you a much better finish.look at "Stanley 20-600 Clamping Mitre Box with Saw" about $14 USD

Yes it can be cut. You will need a sharp knife and a straight edge ruler for a good cut.

You can cut the cable to length and seller provides ferrules to finish end. The parts are long enough for mountain bike. If you have recumbent or tandem you will probably need something longer for rear detailer I had problems with the outer cable for the shifters. The sheath compresses and makes adjustment nearly impossible. I returned original out parts to service. All of the brake cables worked OK. Do a little research, I believe user ratings will explain this. But for the few dollars this cost, I'm OK with it.

You would need a saw to cut it! The plastic is very hard. I wouldn't recommend it.

I don't see why not. But I also don't see why really. This is already a small sheet. But yeah, you should be able to cut it up..

You could cut it if you have super great shears, but I would find a different product. You would be making a mess out of it because of how it is made.

Hi, sorry for late reply. And no, front and rear brake pads are not the same size.

I'm sure you could bud but be careful it's madenof cast iron or at least mine was so the metal is brittle so take you're time. And use cutting fluid Hope it helps manChristopher Smith

Yes. That's what I've been using it for. Be sure to watch the gauge of the metal you are cutting versus the maximum gauge that the cutter is rated for.

You could but I would not recommend it, this is more for pastry and dough then it is for cutting.

You should be able to as this was designed to be cut with the tiny blade. I just tested this with my whale punch with no problems ;-)
