However if you wish to use Austin levers I would make a threaded socket out of some round bar to fit onto your cable, the other end would be shaped the same as a std cable end and cross drilled to accept an original end cap. I believe that would address the binding and you could be secure in the knowledge that the lever was strong enough for the job.
Hi Ian,
That was what I did initially but had to remove a lot of material from the socket to avoid the arm of the lever from contacting the socket on full lock, hence my alternative method.
I could possibly remove metal from the arm too but was concerned about loss of strength.
Thanks for you interest and suggestions, I will continue with my design and try to upgrade with next version.
