ABSTRACT:
A device for eliminating cable flop, for use with bicycle brake cable detanglers used on "trick" bicycles, includes an anchor platform pivotally mounted to a base, and brake cables connected to the anchor platform. As the bicycle handlebars spin, the anchor platform moves differentially to reciprocally compensate for differences in the length of the brake cables, thereby eliminating flop.
