One cable should work on both front and rear brakes, as long as your rear brake isn't located any more than 1.75m from the lever (which is unlikely).

Just select the cable choice (Road or MTB).

I'd expects so, these should fit most bicycles, unless you need extra long cables, or specialist brake
cable ends. Make sure you get the right type i.e don't buy the Road type for a Hybrid, MTB, or a BMX!

Check the existing cable length and possibly the manufacturers documentation for the brake levers and brakes, if you are not sure.

Note: it is normal to have to cut brake cable to size (2cm tail) after they have been fitted and adjusted, preferably using proper bicycle cable cutters, then put crimps on the ends.
