Re:
Zaskar is nearly done, need to cable up the gears, just need outer cable, had a look in Halfords but they only do Clarks stuff now which looks pish.
Also need brake pads, need to shorten the chain a bit, bleed the rear brake then test ride it, better get my finger out i think :roll:

Looking good Jimi! Always wanted one of them bitd. Annoying guy who's dad won the pools had one, but never actually rode it off road.
Clarks cables are actually pretty good btw.
No new build for me (I actually have enough bikes for now :shock: ). I will be retro though, Delta V is good to go. Maybe not good to stop though, not sure how the canti's will handle the long blue descent.

, I've been using Fibrax gear cables, stainless steel, from Winstanleys, comically cheap compared to how much Fibrax themselves were charging. Free post too.

Been happy with them and they include plastic ferrules and caps for end of cable.

Re:
AGGGHHH, wish i'd seen this earlier OCP, have ordered some Shimano outer :roll: , it'll do the job anyway.
I'm sure i've used Clark cable before Clubby but the bit i picked up in Halfords just felt a bit cheap for some reason, also felt a bit too stiff and rigid when i handled it.
the outer gear cable that is
