A friend of mine in Norway has fitted a Robinson 4LS front brake to his BSA special. He's struggling to get a brake cable for it.
Has anybody any idea where he could buy a cable of have one made for this brake in the UK, or Norway?
 
Hi Chris, thanks for that. I suppose that Venhill may be able to do it if they still do bespoke cables. I'll ring them tomorrow and see if there's anybody there to answer the phone in these present circumstances.
 
Someone like Venhill will definitely be able to help, but only as ‘custom’ cables, it’s highly unlikely they’ll have any off the shelf spec for your mates application, so he is still gonna have to provide them with detailed info inc:

Length of the outer (from lever to abutment, which would normally be on a rearward extension of the torque arm).

Length of the inner.

Nipple type / size.

Ferrule design.

Type and size of any female threads at either end.
 
Thanks for your reply Nigel.
I rang Venhill yesterday and I think we've got it sorted.
