My throw is starting to feel notchy again, which means it’s time to replace yet again. In 15 years this will be #6. I know Mark was looking at offering a better one but never saw the upshot.
So how often do you replace yours? It would sure be nice if they were self adjusting like old shoe type brakes. |

Long ago, broke a clutch cable, prior to replacement I was advised to hang it from one end, put a plastic bag around the other and pour some motor oil into the top till it came out the bottom into the bag. I let it sit for 10 -20 min or so In the sun, then installed it. After 5 years of DD use including a clutch change and many adjustments, it still looked and felt as if new.
