Wanted: "C" type canti linkwire

rurs

Doing up the brothers MTB for commuting, front link wire is damaged. Anyone got a spare lying around? Cash, or swap for a pair of uberbike caliper pads, or a set of homemade spiked tyres. (26*1.90, 49 spikes per tyre).

I'm not sure what you mean by 'C type' but if it's one of these; http://www.sjscycles.com/store/6288shimanocant.jpg then I think I have one that you can have for free if I can find it.

Thanks, that looks like what I'm after. By C type, I mean the length. There seems to have been different lengths available. There's a letter stamped on the central circular bit. The bike I'm working on has C on the front, D on the rear. C should be 106mm (the length of the stiff outer). If that's what you have, I'll take it with gratitude.:)

Ok, found it. Unfortunately, mine's an "A" with a 73mm lenght.

No worries, thanks for looking. The LBS had a couple of "B"s, he's going to see if he can get a C for me.
