Unknown downtube braze-on cable stop
Hello folks, I've got a frame that has these:
I'm used to square type shifter bosses on my C&V bikes so this is something I've never seen before. What parts would I use to mount a cable stop here? The inner diameter is about 3.5mm, and the width is 8mm
Do I need to use something like the Jagwire Rocket Adjuster ?
Thanks!

Only if they aren't threaded. From your picture, the stops are threaded so you need the BSA028 or BSA039 adjusters (see the link for the part number).

These appear to be standard threaded stops. However they also seem to be painted on the inside so there's a decent chance you'll need a tap to chase them out. Cross that bridge when you get to it, so buy the adjusters and try your luck. Then IF necessary you can tape these clean.
