Vintage Cable End Source
 
Is there a source to purchase some of these cable ends like this that are used for vintage frames with rear derailleurs?

You didn’t, AMCO. Please tell me you didn’t make such a rookie mistake.

Cut me some slack! I'm not used to such high quality, upper-tier features lol

I thought there was an internal step down, similar to a slightly more modern brake housing cable stop. I think I have one of those things around somewhere!

Too true, too true.

That's a great descriptor. I'll try say it like that for the next failed attempt to borrow the co-ops facing tools ('I have uhh...a full Campy bike...that I need the facing tool for') :lol:
