    Throttle cable

    I am wanting to know if anyone on here knows where I can get throttle, brake & clutch cables made. I am changing my handlebars to Ape Hangers so I need the right cables, so if anyone can stare me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

    Any brake repair specialist should be able to do this, for example I've had Safe R Brakes here in Christchurch make bespoke cables for me on many occasions.

    any good workshop at a bike shop should be able to, just depends on whether they have the right fittings. Hughes Motors in Greymouth too, he'll have no problem sorting it for ya

    There was/is? a local speedo repair business could make up cables. These days most of their work is on electronic speedos, but they still had the old school tools. They might need the fittings off your existing cables?

    i was going to suggest taking the old one along to raid for fittings but a lot now are crimped on and not that easy to incorporate in a new one, although of course that's pretty much only the ferrules
