Gear shift cable

Postby blacksquirrel » Sun 22.07.2007, 14:02

Hello,

One of my gear shift cables has broken and I was wondering where the best place to get a replacement was?

I've done a bit of googleing but so far haven't come up with much.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Many thanks,

Justyn

I've got one, but they are both different.
If you look at the gearbox end one has a smaller 'hoop' than the other, this is the one I have (well I have 2 actualy).
£30 including postage if this is the one you need. Sods law says it won't be :lol:
Theyre around £170 otherwise :shock:
Yours is an SE isn't it?

I've got a spare of the other one I think (forward/backwards IIRC), which you can have for free if you don't mind coming to pick it up (I'm in London too).

Thanks guys.

I'll have a look and see which one it is that's broken when I'm back home on tues and let you know.

Thanks for all your help.

The one with the small 'hoop' is the crossgate cable, if that helps

I've had a look now and it's the cross shaft (forwards/backwards) cable that has gone.

Al - I've sent you a PM.

Thanks again for all of your help.
