Abstract: A generally flat base having a pair of opposed arcuate arms which converge toward each other to form a slot is securable to a frame of a bicycle or the like for anchoring one end of a control cable sheath. The arcuate arms embrace one end of the cable sheath and restrain the sheath against transverse movement. An abutment on the base is engageable by the end of the cable to limit longitudinal movement of the sheath. The abutment has a slot formed therein which opens into the slot formed by the arcuate arms to receive the cable. The slot formed by the arcuate arms is skewed relative to the longitudinal dimension of the cable and the cable must be correspondingly skewed to be received in or removed from the slot in the abutment.
