    My bodged up long throttle cable broke today (at a very embarrassing moment!)

    The outer is still all good but I need a new inner cable, can anyone recommend a source for cable and the correct nipples? I don’t mind soldering the nipples on, or maybe there’s a universal cable like you get for push bikes?

              Here’s some pics and dims of my bodge Wagner reverse IM cable for anyone wanting to make their own cable. I cut the crimp and pulled the TB end adjuster off, added approx 16cm of outer, joining the two section of outer with the original rubber tube and ran a new inner. The inner cable I had was slightly short so I joined the end of the old cable to it. This worked fine for several years. Obviously it would have been better to buy a longer inner and crimp the correct nipple to it but I never got round to it.
              Anyway hopefully the dimensions will be helpful to someone.

              The outer is 88cm total including the ends.

              The inner is 119-120cm including nipples.

                I had my cable redone and modded to suit the Wagner reverse manifold by a place that specializes in cables. I'm going e-throttle now and no longer require it. You're welcome to it if you need one.
