STI Stopper

STI Stopper is used for a bicycle converted from double to single setup. Install it on shifting cable to hold STI lever (dual control lever) in place. Made of stainless steel.

With the increase of bikes built with wider range cassettes, converting to single front ring is becoming popular, as the combination can provide enough gears for long distance, hill climbs, off-road, etc.

After converting Double to Single setup and removing FD, STI lever will be floppy due to no tension from the cable without it connected to FD. To avoid that, install “STI stopper” on the cable to hold the lever in the proper place.

*When great impact is applied to the lever due to a fall or crash, , the stopper will slide down along the cable (and release cable tension), so the lever won’t get damaged.
