There are two common type of brake cable ends - road (has a little
mushroom) and mtb (round 'disc'). You need to get brake cable to suit your brake levers.Dirty harry's for example use the round discs. The road brakes you've linked to will use the 'mushroom' type. You can though find some brake cables with both ends. You just remove the one you don't need.
Any bike shop will have brake cables and housing (worth replacing if its a few years old) for a few quid along with cable ends to prevent fraying.
