I'm sure I've seen on here a couple of homemade cable stops. I have a M5 boss on a pair of pepperoni's and whilst I have a force 40 thing I was keeping this for another build. So has anyone fabricated/purchased a neat cable stop?
 
I got one from the Hawk Factory shop in Shresbury :oops: .

I'll be back up next week sometime, I could have a look for you.

It was kind of like a metal barrel with s threaded section on the end to fix it to the yoke. it was then drilled across it's diameter to make a cable stop.

Can't find a photo.
 
Whats the hawk factory shop? And why have you gone all red?

Really fancy making something though, if you find a pic it would be great. Even ordered some alu bar.
 
Hawk Cycles (Google them and you'll see why I went all :oops: ).

Like I said, I'll be back up in Shropshire Wednesday next week (probably).
If you have no joy making one I'll nip in and get one for you. They're only a couple of quid. :wink:
 
:oops: I'm embarrassed for you now too :lol: cheers though I'll keep it in mind.
 
No probs.

On a serious note, they are good for that kind of 'stuff'. You know, the bits you always think "Where the hell am I gonna get one of them?" about.

They sell canti cams and tri-dangle type things too.
