Anybody know where I can buy 1/4" OD brake cable housing (roughly 6 mm OD)?

The kind used with bicycles seems to be 5 mm, or roughly 3/16", OD.

Thanks a lot!

Found it on amazon.com by searching for 6 mm. brake cable housing. It is available from companies like Motion Pro, etc. I think the 6 mm. housing takes a 2 mm cable, while the 5 mm. housing commonly used on bicycles takes a 1.5 mm. cable. Please correct me if I am wrong.
