Fell out on a ride. Shifter now dangling around. Anyone know where I can get a spare?
Seems to be a custom screw..Countersunk M5 0.5mm pitch 10mm long T25 head (though I'm no expert)
All my M5s (eg disc rotor) have a coarser 0.7 or 0.8mm pitch.
I've fixed that exact issue on the trail using a disc bolt, not sure if more recent SRAM shifters will allow the same.
Was a bottle cage bolt trailside fix for me but neither that nor a rotor bolt will hold it tight. Definitely different thread.
E-mail me your adress, got a few in work, i'll pop one in the post for you. (adress in my profile)
Rotor bolts. Same pitch... I use them no problem on XX1, Eagle XX1 and Bontrager dropper lever.
He's talking about the bolt that holds the matchmaker onto the brake lever clamp, not the shifter to the matchmaker, it's a much finer thread than that.
But why?
They're like hen's teeth. I needed one as well. If you Google it, you might a certain small UK bike company has a supply of them.
But why?
Stops it coming loose.
Ah, that one... You got them with reverbs in the olden days
@coatesy thanks for the offer that would be great. Happy to pay obviously, or contribute to a charity of your choice etc. Can't seem to be able to message you on the phone. I'll try on the laptop later on.
@coatesy doesn't seem to be a way to email you through the site ...message box doesn't appear on your profile?
Just sent you a message, hopefully you'll be able to reply via that.
@cotesy thanks for pm won't let me reply! As per your message if you could contact me on:

Just wanted to say a big thanks to @coatesy for sending this through. I'm sure he won't mind me giving a shout out to https://www.sunsetmtb.co.uk/ .. I've got you on the list for future (paid!) orders. Cheers.
