Default clutch cable adjustment location

Fellas, I'm trying to find a braided clutch cable that has the adjustment close to the transmission. I am running a custom frame and will be running the clutch cable through the downtube and need a 72" clutch cable that I can still adjust. Most cables have the adjustment portion in the middle, which puts it at the downtube. I need that adjustment to be closer to the transmission so that it is assessable. I'm searching but keep coming up with clutch cables with the adjustment in the middle. Do yal know of any supplier that makes a clutch cable with the adjustment towards to transmission?

Have one custom built, you may want a spare one also.
