During an episode of hamfistedness I appear to have broken the little triangular grommit that pulls the straddle wire on my rear canti brake upwards.

The internet seems to sell a few cheapy Raleigh versions that just hook under the straddle wire, but this one was a posher looking Tektro thing that held it with a couple of grub screws. I can only find one like that on a US site; surely somebody here must do them? Would a cheap one do? Or do I just have to buy a whole new brake?

It looked a bit like this one

Halfords sell them.. Well, the local one here does.

hey phiiiiil, hows it going?

Looks similar to the one in the OP.

That looks like it, Grum. So do I go for cheap and functional, or pricier, pimpier and matching the remaining one? Hmmm…

Ta all…

Had a couple of old silver tektro ones in my spares box for years
