Needed Double Cable Housing Stop
Not sure whether this belongs here or in Bicycle Mechanics.
Looking for a source for a 1.25" downtube clamp on double cable stop to fit a friends Raleigh Technium road frame. The original was plastic and broke some years ago. Clamp on cable stops seem to be a vanishing species. Nothing showed up in a quick Google search.

If you haven't tried e-Bay yet, I would suggest you do that. Do a search for vintage bike parts or cable stops. There are several sellers that deal in vintage NOS as well as used bike parts.

After posting originally I found an available solution. The "Problem Solvers Backstop" is a machined black anodized aluminum dual cable stop that is available from several sources. Available in 1.125", 1.250" and 1.375" down tube diameters. Not too classic looking but the original failed plastic part I do not consider to be classic either.

1.25s are hard to find 1.125s are a dime a dozen.
