Years ago, when V-brakes came along, you could buy a bolt-on cable stop widget. Anyone know if / where you can get these now and what the proper name is ? Got a mate who wants one to fit a front mech on a bike that shouldn't ! Cheers guys.

This chap is selling a backstop which should do the trick….

st john st cycles will sell a bolt on cable stop if that's not right.

£2.99 at SJS Cycles if it's what youre after.

EBay, search for bolt on cable guide and they come up

Doh

These are ace! Been running one on my bike with no problems at all. A coke can shim can be used if the size is slightly to big.

Plus Billys are good to deal with.
