Thank you Barry, and a very happy New Year to you. Yes, I've been told that the cables used on modern motor-bike brakes are ptfe lined, I think I'll consult a two-wheeled enthusiast. The standard brakes on my Nippy are now approaching reasonable (and thanks again for your advice) but the logic of the Bowden approach seems impeccable and I can more or less convince myself that they would be acceptably "period" - more so than hydraulics certainly.
