I've probably got a bikes worth available as soon as I fit my new white Jagwire housing (with gold ferrules :cool: ). I personally dont like the stuff but for the rear section of brake housing its ideal.

If you guys are interested I can send you both half each so you should have enough to do the whole brake and maybe even the front too. If you just want a little bit each for karma thats fine too.

I'm interested Mike, can you drop me a PM with costs etc?

PM'd mate :)
 
IIrc Zero made one of these collar things bitd, and it had a barrel adjuster built in too! :cool:

cheaper than a Backstop and better!

But unfortunately for me they don't do a 28.6 to fit a 94 Explosif. 31.8 would fit Cinder Cones, Lava Domes etc though.

I have one of these that I'd part with for £5 posted. I don't know the size off the top of my head but I had it on a '94 Kilauea until I had a stop brazed on. I can measure it over the weekend if anyone's interested.

being ignorant...

Does the back stop fit the top tube rather than the seat tube (where the dog collar sits) I have a 95 hahanna with the full length outer option and swapping to something more aesthetic would be fantastic!

oh P.S. anyone have any idea the diameter of a 95 hahanna top tubeif thats where it fits?
 
re dog collar/V brakes

Sure its been mentioned before but I managed to get a chrome cable clip which I've located about 4/5" in front of seat tube (see attached photos).
Possibly even "more retro" than a dog collar.

That is very cool! Where did you get that from?
