just be aware that you'll need either flat base or curved base, dependent on how the DT boss is brazed on
-
Another option if you're not fussed with appearance and zip tie, is a continuous cable housing from derailleur to shifter.

If you're in London I can do you some unused Freshtripe ones for a fiver?

Cross post from CP, but thought I may as well try here anyway...
I want to convert a bike from having dt shifters (7 speed suntour) to thumbies. I have one of those shifter mounts for the right (which I am hoping the current dt shifter will fit on) and have ordered a cheapo friction for the left.
I have just realised that I will need some cable stops. I know there are Campag ones and Shimano ones, but what does that actually relate to? And can I just get away with using any that have a barrel adjuster? In which case is there any reason not to use the cheapest I can find?
Cheers.
