How did the front brake cable route down the right fork leg? Was there a cable clamp somewhere on the fork leg? If so does anyone have one? Thanks again, Ted Atkinson
Ted
It went out along the fork leg and was held by a Gray old fashioned strap with a pin as a keeper. (Kind of an old fashioned tie wrap) Some of the straps were even black plastic with the pin through it. I got a lot of mine from inventories, EBAY, and stripping other bikes. I am hopefully having some made as I have a friend who made the mold for them but I have not heard from him in awhile. He is slow but sure! You can see these straps in several of the original photos in the old magazines.
Kip: If you ever get the repos let me know I will buy one. Any close up photos of one? I do not remember those at all. Also did the black chain guide blocks ever get re-maned. Mine looks fine on the bike but it is cracked and would like to replace it. Thanks, Ted
Ted I sent the original black "Penton" chain block to the same guy who is doing the gray straps. Just waiting on info for the mold. I'll check things out!;)
