Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Chuck in bin, buy new lever. Alternatively. Chuck in bin, buy SRAM/Avid or Hope, which have full rebuild kits available to order.

I remember some guy moaning about some small pin or screw going missing and he had to replace the whole lever. You can apparently mix n match the levers/callipers from the latest Deore 615 and up, if monies tight then just get a Deore lever or calliper, you might also be able to swop the brake lever and reach adjuster over from the old Xt or Slx lever to the new Deore part. Does Sram sell rebuild kits for their new range of brakes the guides etc?

I brought in new levers which then got stuck in the Post Office strike and eventually i just purchased a set of SLX locally. XT and SLX are interchangeable I have some spares therefore and some new levers that eventually arrived 6 months later. What are you looking for?

So RHS rear and a LHS front. RHS has some issues with springs hence i replaced it and LHS was working okay. I also have a new set of levers but they are longer throw - let me look at the model numbers. They include hoses. DO you want the new longer throw levers or the other damaged ones as spares? email is paulruinaard@gmail.com
