Help, I have lost the cable clamp for my Deore M350 front mech
Its the bolt/nut/cable clamp

Can I order a spare or does someone have a wrecked front mech with one attached??

Cheers

    go to your LBS and buy/order one.

  • Thanks!

    would any LBS be able to buy one??

    Any idea where i could order one online??

    Cheers
  • Do you mean the little crimps that you put on the end of the cable? Or the nut that fastens the cable to the mech, wedging it locked?

    Uk Bike Store do the cable crimps for 5p a pack, or what looks like a pack, but whatever it is you LBS should have 1, though you never know...
  • No PS

    its a M5? bolt nut and cable clamp plate

    the bolt and nut are just a nut and bolt and the plate is the same as on the V brakes infact the bolt is the same.

    But any LBS tends to have a pile of dead mechs/parts you will be able to get the bits from.

    If you really want new get your LBS to include them in their next madison order.

    Not many shops will stock them as spares.

    Ask them to look in the big bucket of old spares, down in the cellar, next to the Raleigh Activators and Flex Stems ;-)
