Gear Change (bowden) Cable - cheapest supplier
Hadders - 18/11/08 at 07:58 PM

Looking for the best price on a 1000mm one of these. Only place I know of is Brakingpoint on Ebay or Venhill direct.

Any other suppliers you can recommend? Plus has anyone used Brakingpoint. Good experience?

TIA

Not sure about Bowden cables, but I've used a Teleflex / Morse control cable for my gear change. I think the boat bouys use them to turn outboard motors / or throttle control.

I got mine from a local boat chandler, but
ebay linky
looks (very) similar to mine.
