Digging in my parts bin for some v-brake levers for my Clockwork build I found a pair of Avid AD1.0Ls with a broken spring on one side. Also found some slightly less nice but very similarly designed tektro MT3.0s.
Thought I’d be clever and nick a spring out of the Tektros. Unfortunately it didn’t quite work in the Avids, having a tendency to pop out when compressed. Took the spring back out and put it back in the tektro lever.
When I’d finished I noticed another spring on the carpet. :facepalm:
I’m coming down with a cold, I’m tired, I had a glass of strong cider earlier and it’s generally not the best time to be doing fiddly jobs... I’m not going to take them apart again this evening. It might be obvious when I next look but in the meantime does anyone know where the mystery spring goes?
