[Closed] Replacement brake lever

[#10944569]

After my muc off bleed incident my brake lever has given up the ghost - no return, holding the pads in place and brake fluid peeing out everywhere. They were Shimano Deore from 2014 Whyte 905.
First lever ordered (Shimano Alivio 447) was a right hand lever (despite being packaged as left).
Second lever ordered (Shimano Deore M6000) was a left lever but unlike the Alivio doesnt have a hole for the shifter collar to mount into.

Any ideas what I need? This hassle breaks my spirit and determination to do my own maintenance.

thanks

BearBack thanks for your help - I didn't buy the Shapeways adapter in the end but I did learn all about I - Spec.

I found one of these, Shimano Zee M640 I-Spec-B Disc Brake Lever at Evans all went together great and I am now looking forward to saturday in the Peak.

thanks again, I am very happy!
