LF Hughey 1/8" or .130" cable. Ends don't matter

[RaceMechaniX]

Hey guys, I am looking for some good condition Hughey .125/130" or .187 flex cable for a friend in Europe.
If I remember Hughey cable was extra soft. I would prefer 12" length or longer if available. The ends of the shaft do not matter. Bulk cable would be ideal if anyone had some lying around.

Let me know.
Thanks,
-Tyler

I just came to my gf’s place. I have some at home so if you do not find what you need I’ll be back in a couple weeks, like the 7th...

Interest, I would trade it for some H&M .130, much more rigid, handles lots of power.

I wonder what he’s up to?

Thanks Ray,
I am looking for super soft flex. Older Hughey 3/16" would also work.
I am in no rush so let me know when you get back.

Hughey's flex was special, much floppier than any other flex I have tried. More efficient under low power, I would wager that it outperforms a wire in low power applications.

I would love to know where he got it, it must be available somewhere.

I have never run an outboard, but I would imagine it would be excellent in them too, is the Hyperformance flex super floppy too?

[RaceMechaniX]

The Hyperformance flex is the next softest I have tested, but it doesn't compare to the Hughey cable.

This is what I have in the spares box : (.125 seems like Hughey BUT IIRC he pinned the drive dog - these are setscrewed )

Thanks Tony,
Those are too short for what he needs.
