Afternoon all...
I am in midst of changing my Carlton from fixie to free wheel.
I have a two sets of GB Coureur 66 brake callipers and am in need of the straddle wires / cables (x4). The barrels on each end need to be approx 5mm or 3/16 of an inch in old money.
I have tried the Weinmann equivalent but the barrels on either end of the cables are are too big, approx 7mm or 1/4 inch.
Does any one have any spare straddle wires / cables available for sale or does any know where I could purchase such them?
Sort of loathed to start drilling out the callipers, seems such a shame.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
