Does anyone know how many concertina sections were in an ORIGINAL single cable bellow for 12 inch brakes. All my old cables have perished incomplete remnants

If they can email me direct then much appreciated

Thanks

Just ran into the photo below in the book "The Art of Abingdon".
It seems that there have been 11 concertina sections at least for the 13 inch brakes.
In the Workshop Manuals mostly they show just plain rubber tubes.

Thanks Gerhard

It seems that the 12 and 13 inch are the same. the ends were also crimped on with steel rings. One kind MMM'er emailed me a photo of a new old stock cable.

Amazing what crops up.

Kind regards
