I need an 18cm Weinmann straddle cable for the rear brake on a mixte. Like the one in the picture but without the rust.

Anyone got one knocking about?

Cheers...

Dia Compe do a copy and may do spares.

Do any of the good people here know where you can get the barrel nipples for these cables in biggish numbers? Not the solderless type, the proper ones that need, err, solder? The lack of new straddle wires for standard centre-pulls is really annoying when you need one. If the nipples could be sourced, they could be made to length, and that would make me and dave4 very happy. I've found a nice man on ebay who is selling them for £1.50 eeeeeach, and Venhill Cables don't have an exact size. Any one know better?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
