Abstract
An end cap for a bicycle control cable of the type wherein an inner cable slides within an outer casing includes a housing defining a hollow chamber, wherein the housing has a first end defining a first opening for receiving the inner cable therethrough and a second end defining a second opening adapted to fit to the outer casing of the bicycle control cable. A lubricant is disposed in the chamber, and a screen is provided for screening the first opening at the first end of the housing. A portion of the hollow chamber between the lubricant and the second end of the housing is open through the second end of the housing, but the lubricant has sufficiently low fluidicity at normal temperature that the lubricant does not flow out of the housing.
