Title: Brake cable problem
Post by: Reggie on May 24, 2006, 02:53 PM

Got a pair of Dia Compe brake cables but they ae mising the alloy nipples which butt up to the lever to stop end of cable pulling into the lever( sort of half sphere with collar).  Been into a couple of bike shops but they don't do them.  Anyone know if you can get em or does anyone have 2?
