The V brakes use a Knarp as a cable stop which looks ugly and besides hard to get - would it be possible to use something like an Onza Chill Pill to do the same job ?
Cheers

It would work to a degree, but probably not the best fit unless you did some modding as the chill pill is a broader arc than the arc of the v brake arm. I'd think it could pop out quite easily.

Also an expensive way to mangle a chill pill.

Maybe find another cable hanger and play with filing the shape to fit?

The Knarp hooks on this bit - was wondering whether a chill pill (or similar) would perhaps slot in too?
I can’t find any decent looking knarps anywhere - and my rear one can’t be loosened as the hex screw has degraded and can’t be unscrewed

I'd want something that sat fully across the canti and couldn't pop off. solderless cable nipples look to be your friend:


Or Odyssey do some BMX ones:


Some there that will look (marginally) less sh1t than the "knarp" you have.
Thank you!!!!!!!
Both look ok and not as shit as what I have
I think the Odysee would work and look less industrial than the others !!
Thanks again I’ll be getting a pair
