[QUOTE="AndyBee, post: 164171, member: 5401"] All - thank you very much for the comments and insights. I'm amazed at the amount of experience there with rectifying this issue. I think I'm going to do two things: 1. Purchase a new shaft and lever and fit those for now - as that's a relatively quick job and I can do it myself 2. Look to find someone who can weld and either re-spline or pin my existing lever, so that I'll have a solution 'in my back pocket' in case of another failure in the future - a case of 'be prepared'. I'm still getting to grips with trustworthy parts suppliers and engineers for these bikes, so I'd rather take my time on point 2 than be too hasty. [/QUOTE]
