Rotated the motor to do general maintenance and put new exhaust gaskets in... decided to put in some cables. I was shocked that St Paul's wants $171 for a set. Is there another way? I mean if I have to I have to... plan on doing the North East BDR in September. But man.

Thoughts?

You can buy kits to make your own pretty cheaply; here is one outfit that sells them:

Check with Motion Pro. They can make cables patterned from your originals.

Anything special about these. Saw a set on ebay for $50 that said plastic end peice cracked.

Sorry, I travel for work so trying to order parts while on the road.

Finally got to this... not as magical as I thought they were. Local bike shop is making me a set.

Thanks!
