Throtle cable alteration
Does anyone know to a tool or company that can alter the lenght of a throttle cable for me?
Is it possible to cut off the nipple and re-fit it?
Is there a tool out there just for this kind of job?
I'm looking to shorten the cable or increase the lenght of the sheathing

I believe it is possible, but can be hard to remake motorbike cable's - I bought a heavy duty cutter for pedal bike cables but its a lighter grade.
These guys must surely be able to help and can make cables to your spec:

Definitely give Venhil a ring. I just had one made to my specs for all of 15 quid.

You send them yours and specify what alteration you want and they send you a new one and your original one back. Takes about 3-4 days.
