Everybody has a wing man. I have a wing nut!
About 25 years ago while driving my teener home from work on a dark cold night, my clutch cable broke. They break at the worst times. I has able to limp home in one gear. The next morning I climbed under my tenner and noticed the entire cable end with nuts and clutch end had broken off and was gone. Finding a new clutch cable was no problem but had no luck finding a clutch cable end. This was 25 years ago and the internet was still in Al Gore's mind. I found a wing nut and made it work. I was looking on Pelican Parts online and noticed they had a clutch cable end. I just replaced my trusty wing nut which survived numerous shifts. I can't believe it has been 25 years.
