Apologies if this is a dopey question....but can you replace the lever itself,not the whole master cylinder/lever assembly but just the lever? I've bent mine three times now(due to offs) and restraightened them...getting worried about the lever material work hardening noo.
Obviously if you break a lever oot in the sticks it would help if you could too...can you just drift out the locating pin and fit new?...dont want to attempt this in case it causes more damage.

I have these brakes, but not aware of replacemants.
Easy way to find out though - go to the Shimano Tech website and download the schematic - see if there is apart number.0 -
yes you can replace them
but there is a grub screw to undo that holds the pivot in place."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
