again I'm looking at blobs of solder refusing to bond with the
cable.

Use acid flux (plumbers) and a blowlamp.
Anyone know where I can get lengths of cable and some ends? I need to
make
up a long inner cable for a rear barke on a Peugeot tandem. No-one
seems to
stock one that's long enough.
Longer than 3 meters?
Erm.. I'll have to battle to the back of my shed where the
tandem has been languishing while I find a cable. I don't
think its more than 3m though. However none of the bike
shops in Norwich had one long enough when I last did
a trawl knowing the actual length.
This was the full range from small specialist shops to Halfords.
The shop I worked in many years ago always carried tandem inner wires
and bulk outer cable - I'd have thought that "proper" shops still
would.
Do you know of an on-line supplier?
