That's not great.

Any idea where to get easily?

your old brake pads?

What is the pin, it may be similar to some others or may be available from screwfix etc.

Failing that a good LBS may have a pot of them.

Failing that I'm sure Shimano & Avid sell them at a very reasonably inflated price.

I got a couple of Avid-branded Elixir pads a few weeks ago and was surprised to see new pins in the pack. It might be worth having a look on the shelf in your LBS if they stock them - they might be included.

You could always use a suitable size split pin
