Re: Cables

If you or somebody like correct cloth covered cables that are very nice... https://www.flechterei-stratil.de/

Re: Cables

Hello Ian,

Would you have an official Bowden specification showing these wire diameters and preferably the conduit outer diameters?
It looks like the wires do not follow SWG spec, is that a correct assumption?
I cannot find any "official" Bowden specification.
I am trying to understand the cables used on the Nortons.
I now come to 3 inner wire diameters but only 2 conduit outer diameters.
Clutch and Front Brake No. 3
Exhaust valve lifter No. 2
Air, Adv/Ret. and Throttle No.1

Inner No. 2 and No. 3 both in Bowden no. 2 outer
Inner No. 1 in Bowden no. 1 outer

I am however not certain about the Bowden denominations.

Any info/comment would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Rob

PS, Flechterei Stratil really has very good looking outer conduits, either as new or "Patina" versions

Re: Cables

Yes, outer diameters would be usefull, but have measured many NOS Norton cables, and wrote all that down.

Stratil will not send out of Europe, but I seem to be the unofficial importer to Australia and the UK, having sent and brought hundreds of meters into both countries over the last 3 years.

But best is if someone wants to buy 150 meter rolls at the time, and sell it on in the UK, contact me about it.

Cheers,

Lex
