help.. stupid dealer!

anyone know where i can get a brake cable like this? im sick of walking into my dealer and being like "i need a 4 and 1/2 foot brake cable like the one off a honda ruckus" and them being like "what bike do you need it for" i said xr 100 "they are like xr100 wtf? thats foot brake dumb ***" and i said im making a custom handbrake and they said "well i cant get you **** without knowing what bike its off of" so anyone know what kind of bike takes a 4 1/2 foot brake cable like the one in the pic? i got a 5 1/2 foot one off my sisters parts scooter but its way to long.

Re: help.. stupid dealer!

Is it threaded on the end? We have thousands on misc. cables. If I have one you can have it. Just pay for shipping. Thanks.
