These Things™
IN STOCK NOW!
All I’ve ever called these things is “These Things” or “Those Things”. Since sitting around thinking of catchy product names is mostly a waste of time, I just picked one.
Anyway, some people call These Things™ INCA’s, or In-Line Cable Adjusters. Whatever you call them, they are helpful little problem-solvers for a myriad of oldschool builds, and in particular quite necessary if you are building a drop bar conversion with cantilever brakes. They can also help remove slop and greatly improve the feel of pre-index-era shifters and derailleurs that never came with adjusting barrels.
WTB produced an INCA in the late 80’s and early 90’s, but in case you didn't notice that was decades ago, so availability is not great. We do know about a couple of modern solutions, all of which look really dumb on a ’85 Commando or '91 Jellybean. So we’ve made These Things™ to be functional yet understated, and to look like they actually belong on your vintage bicycle.
A unique feature of These Things™ is the solid double-male connection we include, which gives you the option to butt the adjuster directly against a shifter, brake lever or cable stop if you so desire. Not sure we’ve seen that before.
Suitable for brake or shift. Sold as a pair.
IF ORDERED WITH TIRES, SHIPS FREE. IF ORDERED INDIVIDUALLY, SHIPS USPS FIRST CLASS MAIL
USA SHIPPING ONLY. INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS PLEASE VISIT MY eBay STORE.
