I had an original sierra one, although needs replacing as poor condition, and the inner wasn't long enough, and I can't shorten the outer without cutting the captive end off the inner.
Not sure why it is like this but possibly because of the way my pedal box has been positioned and/or the linkage i am using, I have seen a few pintos with a different linkage to the one I have which look as though they would require a shorter amount inner cable.
Or maybe I am just making things awkward for myself?
