Source for Campy-compatible shifter cables?
I'm running low on shifter cables. The last time I bought some I split a box of 100 with another forum member (I remember his name, but not his handle, alas) from Niagara. Most of the shifters on my ten or so bikes take Campy-sized cable ends. I know I can file/sand/grind down the Shimano-sized ends, but darn it, I'm getting tired of that. Poking around, I came across this old thread:
The scoop on Campagnolo cables
which sort of helped, but didn't really suggest any sources. I have no desire to source expensive old Campy or Modolo cables. Where can I find generic shifter cables with Campy ends in qty > 10 or so?

I think the last time I bought some, I snagged a couple from Ribble:

But, that is a good point about the Jagwire cables:
https://www.niagaracycle.com/categor...100-campagnolo
I just stocked up on a bunch of miscellaneous cables, but I think I skipped the Campy shifter cables. I might think about purchasing and breaking up a box, although re-shipping would still be around $10.

Thanks [MENTION=373854]ksryder[/MENTION], however, Jenson appears to sell qty 1 of authentic Campy cables, which really jacks up the price. (I could probably buy suitable replacements from my LBS for about the same price.) Based on the 50 I bought last time, Jenson-sourced cables would run me north of $300.

Thanks [MENTION=392454]CliffordK[/MENTION], that Jagwire box looks much more reasonable. (I always have trouble searching the Niagara website for some reason. I'm not sure if I suck at searching or it does.)

You know, I've also had troubles searching the Niagara website.
That link just came up with a global Google search. But, in the past, I've specifically searched the Niagara site using Google.
For example, Niagara has several 40h and 48h hubs for sale (black and silver), but they are almost impossible to find unless one knows exactly what one is looking for.
Send me a PM if you wish to do a 2-way or 3-way split of a box.
