    Folks, any ideas on where the best place is to get lengths of outer cables for both brakes and gear cables and the other bits needed to put on my new bike build. And also, am looking for bottom bracket cups, ultegra 6600. will this bottom bracket also fit 105 cranks? and finally like the outer cables, where is a good source for abr tape - i know its personal preference - but looking for a good source. Again, thanks in advance.

    Your local bike shop, or just about any online bike store for all those things.

    Ultegra 6600 BB cups will take a 105 (Hollowtech) crank, yes, they are all interchangeable. I think the 105 and Ultegra BB cups are identical excepting what is printed on them anyway.

    Which parts have you got for your build so far OP? The first thing to start with should probably have been the frame as this will dictate the suitable sizes/type for some of the other components which you'll need.
