Hand brake cables
Hi,
Ben pointed out to me the other day that what i thought was a seized rear caliper was actually a seized handbrake cable on the nearside rear caliper. They are about £43 quid new for each side but I found this italian company that also supplies them. I just received the cable and it seems well built. Anyway, these are about £18 per side + P&P so might be a good source for anyone wishing to replace these and wishing to buy new but not go down the dealer route. I'll update over the next few weeks when i fit mine. Oli www.cofle.it

Ah I have a offside rear sicking thanks for the heads up, i found the solution of not using it it for 8 months but i think your solution is probably better.

Thanks for that Oli,
I may need the A8L cables for the longest (HA HA) brake conversion in history. |
