That is wonderfull, im glad that you able to reproduce the cables. How about the double bowden cable, if the dia to big, it may not be able to go through the valve lever pinch bolt.

Hi Hami, sorry for the late reply. The 1.6mm stainless steel wire went through the valve lever bolt with no problem. Although I think the bolt hole diameter is 1.8mm. 

To create the double bowden cable, I used a long stainless steel wire, bent & curled it (a few turns) in the middle, then pushed it over the lever control shaft tip which locked it in due to spring tension. Now the lever could move two wires at the same time. I can send you a photo if you need more info. Cheers

I"d sure like to see a pic of the double bowden cable attached to the lever.

Great write up!
