Nokon-to-SIS gear cable connectors
Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2012 8:55 pm
Hi
I would like to know how best to join a section of Shimano to Nokon gear casing.
I have run my Shimano TT gear cables through the bar extensions. They take a steep dive down from their exit of the bars to the barrel adjusters on the downtube and the SIS casing doesn't handle the curve very well unless I use a long length.
I have some old Nokon housing and internal sleeving which would probable manage the radius better. I would like to run a short section of Nokon from the SIS at its exit of the bars to the barrel adjusters.
How should I make the Nokon/SIS connection?
SIS is 4mm and Nokon is 5mm.
I see Jagwire do a double ended connector but I can only find 4/4mm or 5/5mm combination.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.
