Hey Southwind, go to a good bicycle shop, ask for a high quality mountian bike brake cable, get the housing for it also, and the ends. They make some mountian brake cables with a teflon coating on the cable, it will make it slide smoother, ask the guy at the bike shop and give him an idea of what you are doing. You should have it working in nooo time......remember , noo tight bends it will make the cable kink and you will not get the desired smooth throttle you want.......good luck
