Where can I find Campagnolo brake caliper cable adjusters?

I'm looking for a single adjuster for Athena calipers, similar to the picture. If anyone knows where I can get one or if someone has a spare they are willing to sell, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Try these folks,

https://www.ochsnerusa-store.com/

I needed parts to make my brake levers Aero type for a '88 or so Athena set up. They had 'em for a reasonable price.

Good Luck,

Mike

Thanks! At $17 a piece and $25 a set, however, I can't get myself to purchase these. Are there other options available?

Thats not bad if it is the alloy version. I would part my steel ones for less than that.

I'm sure generic drop-ins will work or can be made to work.

The thing about the Campy ones is the D shaped drop in that would prevent compatibility as far as I know. thirdgenbird, do you actually have a spare one willing to sell?

No spares but I would trade steel ones plus cash for the alloy version.
