Mac Bowden Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 My 12 year old throttle cables have become slightly frayed so it's time to pull them out. I'm trying to source 1mm inner Bowden cable and it seems to be very scarce. No bother getting 1.2 mm cable but that doesn't go round the jockey wheels below the throttle lever quadrant without creating binding. Any suppliers ?

Roger Lee Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Here you go. I have used their cable and it works just fine. Your pick. 1/32" or 3/64" of 7x19 or 7x7. http://www.sanlo.com/index.php?id=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anticept Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Since there are gentle turns with the throttle, it's better to get 7x7. 7x19 cables are for lots of flexibility such as running by pulleys, but they fray very easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac Bowden Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Thanks again Roger. That link failed with me but I managed to get into Sanlo via a search. As usual, you are a mine of info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug G. Posted November 13, 2015 Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 Tom Baker made some cables up for me. I paid less than $12 including the shipping. I don't know if he does this on a regular basis, but it was worth it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredG Posted November 14, 2015 Report Share Posted November 14, 2015 I have used this product for replacement throttle cables on my CTsw (E-LSA). It worked well for me. You will have to decide if it will work in your application. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GYTWJJ6?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00 Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
