Soooo, the pin that the lever pivots on (part 5 in linked http://techdocs.shimano.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/EV/bikecomponents/BL/EV-BL-M765-2485_v1_m56577569830608742.pdf) is suddenly attempting to work itself free. Im assuming theres a circlip or a grub screw thats come loose, but I cant seem to see it on the docs.

Anyone know what it is/how to get a replacement?

    Tack!

    Is it a part that you can obtain anywhere, or am I best just going to a generic nut/bolt supplier. The local bike shops are of course trotting out the 'replace the lever' line, which I guess follows shimano's policy.

    You should be able to get one from a good bike shop, if not if you have a model shop that sells rc model cars they use lots of grub screws.
