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.

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.
