Self made cables?

Post by Micha »

Is there an online store where I can order costume made cables or that sells the parts separately?
As I understood here – viewtopic.php?f=7&t=16349
I will need to fabricate my own front brake cable and carburetor cables.
Thanks.

People do it all the time I'm sure. Here's one:

I suspect bicycle shops and places that support vintage car racing have something as well.

I make all my cables. I purchase my British fittings, cables and jackets from Barrett.
