If I keep the lever on the handlebars, the cable is too short. Anyone know where I can find a clutch cable that is around 60-65" long? Everything on eBay is about 48", which is just a hair longer than what I have.

i always used to get my complete cables for $4 at kmart. no longer available. bike aisle now consists of cruddy kids 3 speed bmx things, new pedals, flashing LEDS and glittery handlebar grips. great selection
now the lil wiseacres at the bike shop can charge $15 for just the INNER CABLE!
my remedy? tell them to stuff their lycra where the sun dont shine, and go to that place down below.
i then venture forth to...
a lawnmower shop! stranded cable and outer sheaths...on a roll! $1 a metre! lil brass nipples? 50c each!
some auto places have it as bonnet latch pulls, choke cable pulls, throttle cables etc...
$15 is steep! I paid $5 for the inner cable today and the guy made me an outer sheath on the spot. Exactly 60" just as I asked and the outer was only $5 as well. A few more bucks than eBay cables, but at least I didnt have to wait a week.
