Cheers Sid Sid to get a photo of the front end of the cable, the bike needs to be on it's side or upside down and my OSSAs are currently packed away. I'm not willing to unpack one of them until I'm convinced that you really need a photo. So here it is in words. Pedal bar end: The pedal bar arm has a receptacle for the end of the cable outer. The nipple on the cable inner fits into a holder on the frame. Wheel end: The brake plate arm attaches to the cable inner. The cable outer is held in a receptacle on the brake backing plate.
December 16, 20232 yr Hi Sid, attached pictures as requested, the thing to note is that the outer cable gets pushed to operate the brake instead of the inner cable being pulled. Regards, Ian.
December 16, 20232 yr Author Hi Ian Many thanks for your help. Not seen a set up like it before. I can now crack on with the rebuild. Much appreciated Sid

Much appreciated Sid If you are using the original chain Tensioner , then that needs to be assembled on to the brake pedal shaft at the same time, and I think this is all easier before the engine is fitted ?
