Hi,
Just tighten the wheel on and the handle fell off. The bolt that goes through the handle to tighten has Sheared off???
I know people like to save weight, but to put a hollow pin just seems a bit over the top when it compromises the strength. Wasn't even pushing very hard on it at all.
Does anyone know how I can bodge fix it until I get a new one? Meant to be riding on it in the morning :/

how did you manage that? Where you going too tight turning it before flipping the lever? Only needs to be nipped up turning and then use the cam action of the lever to get it tight.
Had old pikes and fox talas where you could go tight and it not break :/
Done now :/ Just wondering what I could wedge in there until a new one arrives?
The cam action/friction should keep it in place even with the pin sheared off; you can tape it to the fork leg for good measure.
