Gyro cables come as upper and lower parts......ie upper cable and lower cable..........your front brake requires a back cable for its length
dont know what you mean by brake bridge but if its the gyro plate you mean the are very hard to get in colours mostly chrome or black or white if you can find em but mostly chrome :)
Ps dude dont feel embarrased i had to ask a similar question once about a stem with a built in gyro lol

Your two bikes are set up differently, the white haro looks like it has two separate lower cables that run through to the brake, the lower haro will run a 2 into 1 lower cable which uses a straddle cable hanger, you can get ones made by fly or proper which come in different colours.

The lower Haro has standard Gyro cables. You can get any really but I recommend Savage cables if you're not after anything with brands i.e Dia-Compe, Odyssey etc......
You will need an EXTRA LONG top cable because of the bars you have. Trust me bro, been there. The lower cable is standard length.
These are the Savage on my Dp :daumenhoch:
