Just received my Cannon manifold and it is bolted on to my DCOE. Now it came with a lever arm to attach a bolt/nut combo to hold the throttle cable. But it doesn't seem to me that this will really w

I had about twenty lines of explanation going out and then saw LM's picture! Mine looks just like this too, but a little greasier. Picture worth thousand words. Geoff Branch '74 Meejit "Yellow Peril"

Yup pic is worth a thousand for sure. I had a hard time just describing what I was trying to ask as you can prob. tell. Any reason you couldn't use a bicycle brake cable and housing? I don't have the

I tried a motorcyle cable and a couple of other types and had problems at the pedal end. Finally just bought a new one from M*ss. Wasn't too expensive and worked great. Does the picture look like it

Your local bicycle shop will have brake cable slack adjusters that will fit right in the hole in the arm. Cost a couple of bucks at the most. If you really want to get fancy tap the hole in the "leve

Are there differenct types of bike cables? Maybe I just got unlucky. I'm also not sure what is in my car for a pedal-it may not be original as it is just a lever!!! Geoff Branch '74 Meejit "Yellow Pe

Bicycle cables made for tandems are larger diameter and have a higher strand count for less stretch. Go for the tandem cables. Some mountain bike brake cables are also made 'beefier' than the road b

Hi Charlie, I've been using this set up for years now. The only other thing I did was to add a couple of throttle springs to bring it back. With cheaper cables they don't slide as easy. They tend to

As long as you are in the bike shop, ask about cable housings with the teflon lining sleeve. Super smooth frictionless pull, less return spring needed. Nice on our tandem, nice on the throttle. Reme

Another suggestion is to buy a teflon sheath accelerator cable from APT. These cables are made for Minis and are slightly longer than the Sprite cable. The advantage of using this cable is that you c
