Need black brake cable casing

Hi,
I am restoring a bike and I need 5 feet of black cable casing. I don't need the interior part. Give me an email back regarding your cost plus S & H. Desire either clean or new cable. Thanks, Jim

Any LBS should sell brake (or shift) housing by the foot for only a dollar or so a foot. Black is almost universal.

Yep, a dollar per foot is what I pay at my LBS for black cable casing.
