Bars and cables

Forums

Do the standard brake/clutch/speedo etc cable lengths fit the HB214 27.5” x 4.5” x 7/8” bars?

May not have made myself clear...

I’m assuming the standard bars are flat.

In my ignorance I thought a bar with a rise would be more comfortable for lardy types like me - and I bought the HB214 bars which have a 4.5” rise. I believe called “European”.

Now I’m nearly at the stage of bars and cables I thought I would take advice on cable lengths.

One option is to buy a set of straight bars and standard cables.... simples?

SS with straight bars  have different cables to std  Dommies  which  usually came with low rise bars  about 2 1/2". Some cable suppliers have  detailed lists

Handle bars should not affect speedo cable ,  they do however have different lengths depending on where the speedo is mounted ,and different   length top nuts for magnetic or chrono heads, bit of a minefield !!.

-Whisper very quietly- 'manxman' cables be what you need? They came with high bars on them, so should be fairly close on size for you.
