On saturday's ride in the Berwyns, the Descender unit snapped off my post, the whole pin and retaining assembly. It looks as if it was originally bonded or friction-welded on. I've wrapped a few cable-ties around it to hold it in place, and when the pin is in, it can't go anywhere, there's just a chance it could come away when changing the seat position. But otherwise, still works fine.
It was bought second-hand so out of warranty.
Anyone else done this, and how did you fix it? I'm thinking aradlite or stronger adhesive, and the replace cable-ties with something stronger/more permanant.
Pull the pin out again with a magnet and re ream.
