The Terry's are nicer. Very nice ends and a better quality cable.

Note to self (and you):
The Terry clutch cable apperantly has to be cut back 1" and then re-threaded to take up the slack. It's 1" too long. This is from RedBeard. Can anyone else confirm? |

Run it. I have never cut one. If there is a problem Terry will correct it (unlike other manufacturers) They are in SoCal. I had them start making 9146 cables 3-4 years ago. Sent them a stock one and they duped it in the good stuff. As far as them being long.. I have seen engines sitting .5 to 1.0 inches OFF where they should be.

I used all Terry cables from Pelican.
Advice: thread some crafting ribbon to the pedal end before you pull the old cables out. Then you can use it to pull the new ones through. The ribbon is easy to tie, thin, and strong as hell so it won't break. |
