I am finishing my 1965 Norton Atlas project and have a front brake cable question. I am putting on UK bars and a Commando 2LS front brake. I read that the standard Atlas cable won’t work with the 2LS because it doesn’t have an adjuster on the brake lever and I am confused about which brake cable to use, the cable for the Atlas with the single leading shoe (35 inch outer cable length?) or a 68-70 Commando front brake cable for the twin leading shoe (32 inch outer cable length?). From my research it looks like the outer cable is a different length and the inner cable to outer cable length is different. I am planning on not using a cable with the brake light switch
I’m sure one of you Atlas riders has put the 2LS brake on your Atlas, what arrangement did you use (Commando or Atlas cable? outer cable length? inner to outer length?)
Thanks in advance for any advice .
