Slipstream Cycle RearSet Brake Cable End

[petecasey14]

Hi All,

I'm just wondering if someone could help me out with figuring out a replacement for a missing part. It's a part of my rearsets for my Honda Cx500C from Slipstream Cycle Works and I can’t use my rear brakes without it.

My workspace is a little weird as I don't have a garage, and basically it fell through a crack in the wood where I was working and I lost it. It's a brake cable end for my rear brakes, and since there is a different type of cable used I can't use my original part.

Not sure what it's called so I can't figure out where to look. I contacted Jarred from Slipstream to get a replacement and he originally said he would send me another, but I haven't heard back and so need to find the part another way. Does anyone know what I could use to connect these two points? I am comfortable working on my bike but don't want to just hack something together for the brakes.

Thanks,
Pete

Not sure if this is what you're after but it should work. Just check the dimensions listed against your brake actuator lever.
Treatland - Domino Brake Cable Stop

What is the dimensions of your your bike for :
diameter of the hole in your brake arm ?
WIdth across the brake arm (outside)?
Diameter of the cable nipple?
Diameter of the cable?

One of us may have a spare that might work if we know what size to look for

Okay I got the dimensions, they are:

Hole in brake arm - 12mm (1/2 in)
Width across brake arm - 25mm (1 in)
Diameter of cable nipple - 8mm (5/16 in)
Cable - 3mm (1/8 in)

That's quite large. Check on ebay but you may be quicker and cheaper to buy a short length of 1/2" steel rod and cut a piece to length and cross drill it.

Check out Venhill. They should have plenty of parts to build the proper setup, or just get the barrel nipple.
