180 degree noodles?
Can these be got?
Would make routing choke cable a lot easier.
Very tight for space,
Ive seen 90 and 120 jobs.
No 2x90 suggestions!

Excellent 
Come to think of it - I could do with one of those for my throttle cable.
Now I know what they are called ........ they are really called that right? I mean, I'm not going to get one of 'those' looks when I
ask my local autospares guy for one, am I? 
What about a length of brake pipe and some soldering?
*edit* I found some flexible noodles in a bag - do they do pot noodles too?

I used to work in a bike shop in a past life
I'm /sure/ there was a device available that used a pulley that would enable a cable to be routed back on itself and may have been adjustable in
angle (I cannot recall whether these were designed for rear deraileur cable routing or for brakes..not that it should matter much apart from it making
it more permutations to Google)
I know theres a device called a "travel agent" which is basically a pulley wheel designed for multiplying the cable pull but only seen it
in 90 degree
(http://problemsolversbike.com/products/travel_agents)
A pulley wheel and simple fabricated bracket would do what you want, but you would have to keep on top of the oiling (unless you could seal it and
keep it packed with grease?)
Alternately bend your own noodle to the required angle

I am pretty sure it was this I was thinking of
http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?PartnerID=79&ModelID=1802
Not quite 180 degrees but the flex in the bowden (even inf pretty short) would be enough to do the rest surely?
