  • Patent number: 5803654
    Abstract: A control cable and conduit assembly mounting system includes a pair of integrally formed, arcuate, spaced-apart, flexible flanges which substantially encircle a hollow handlebar or frame member. Also included is a post contained between the flanges which extends through a hole formed in the wall of the tubular handlebar or frame member. The post provides axial and rotational position stability and resists displacing forces caused by movement of the control cable or other forces tending to move the control cable along or rotate the conduit around the handlebar or frame member. The flexible flanges maintain the control cable and conduit assembly in a position proximate to the handlebar or frame member. The elimination of the use of screws or fasteners allows for the cable center line to be parallel with the center line of the handlebar or frame member.
