Hello Steve-
You will need to determine how many inches over stock you'll need the cables to be. To do so, install the bars and any other handlebar accessories you have (i.e. risers) then adjust the bars to a position that is comfortable for riding. Make sure the cables are still connected at the lower end. To measure your plus lengths, turn the bars to full lock in the opposite direction of the cable(s) you are measuring. Then measure from where the cable ends to where it needs to connect to the bars and write down that measurement. This is your plus length. Repeat this procedure for the cables on the other side of the bike.
Once you have these measurements call us at 650-594-9600 and ask to speak with the custom cable department. They will assist you with your custom cable order.
Feel free to ask if you have further questions.
