French Red Cable housing original made in France for your Rene Herse Alex Singer

Description: This is original old Made In France red cable housing. No ferules. Unlined which is typical. We have a big spool of it and we've cut off 72" which is enough for a front and rear brake. You can also use for derailleur of course. The housing is eactly as shown in the photos. You will need to cut to length for front and rear (and be sure to file/smooth the ends). A Campy 1.8mm brake cable we think is too tight in these housings. So best to use Weinemann or Mafac cables that are thinner. Of course, if you're using modern 1.6mm brake cables they will fit great. There are many modern repro cable housings available, but if you want something truly vintage and made in France, than this is a great opportunity. This item is perfect for that old Rene Herse, Ale Singer, Cinelli, Masi, Hetchines, Reynolds 531 or Columbus SL bicycle that you have. This item will be great for that vintage lightweight bicycle that you may be displaying at Classic Bicycles Auburn in June 2024 in Auburn Indiana at the famous Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum The fine print: It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine if an item purchased from us is safe for use. Many items, especially vintage items, are best for display-only due to metal fatigue, other degradation from time, and vintage designs that were not subject to modern testing. If you purchase an item from us and you make a determination that the item is not safe for use, contact us for a replacement or refund. But don't use this reason is you simply changed your mind about your need for the item. You take care of us, and we take care of you! This item is being sold by Boulder Bicycle. We "failed retirement" and once again are in the vintage bicycle parts business. The staff at Boulder Bicycle has been selling vintage Campagnolo Nuovo Record and Super Record parts since the early 1990's! Note that while we failed retirement, we do plan to keep the business somewhat low key. For now, we only ship orders on Wednesday of each week. We will adjust the epected shipping times accordingly. So order on the weekend and shipping is fast, order Wednesday night or later, and the order won't ship until the following Wednesday. We are tempted to change our business name to "Wednesday Vintage Bicycle Parts" but for now we'll stick with Boulder Bicycle. Do not ask us to report a lower-than-actual value for items shipped internationally. It is the responsibility of the buyer to pay all customs/vat/import fees. And please don't get mad at us if the postal service is slow - we take pride on getting your order packaged carefully and shipped on Wednesday. If the postal service is slow or has other issues, we'll help with tracking and moral support, but we aren't the postmaster. ------- A note about pricing - if we are interested in accepting offers for an item, we will enable price or "best offer" in the listing. Otherwise, do not message us to ask if we will accept a lower price. We review our pricing regularly and make changes based on product availability and market conditions. You will notice many of our prices are much lower than other sellers for similar items. We try to keep things fun and informative and fair for everyone. Unfortunately, we are getting older and grumpier as time goes on - sorry about that. So if you ask us if we will accept a lower price on an item that does not have "best offer" enabled, we may block you as a bidder. Now we have to go yell at a kid to get off our lawn......
