Title: Lazy (but serious) Question
Post by: Clean on May 26, 2014, 10:52 PM

Peeps,

Can anyone tell me the correct length for ouster sleeves, and inner cables, for front and rear brake cables (Dia Compe)?

I cannot be arsed taking any of a build, and have none to measure, but do have several metres of Shimano sheath (in SE Racing Brown) to sheer (read it and weep).

Thank you.

Yours, achingly lazily,

Clean.

it would depend on frame length, hight of bars and where the rear brake is orientated, also if your running a potts mod. there's probably some equation you could work out but it would probably be quicker to get a tape measure ya lazy fooker.  ;D

As long as they need to be and not as short as you would like.
