• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Clutch Lever Mount (?) Broken - After Market Options?

I'm not sure if "clutch lever mount" is the correct word, but the part that mounts between the clutch lever and the clutch perch broke on my Terra. Clutch lever is fine. Clutch perch is fine. It is kind of a freak thing, but the contact point that the adjustable lever pushes against broke away. So pulling the lever won't draw the cable anymore.

Has anyone found a good (or even not so good) aftermarket option that replaces the stock clutch lever and lever mount?

So I gave these a shot. It looked like it would be a perfect fit, but on the clutch lever, I had to remove some radius from the lever and also take some metal off to reduce the thickness to fit it. The brake lever didn't fit either, and I didn't bother trying to make it fit as I didn't need it.

Given the cheap price, I'm fine with having had to modify the lever. They are actually quite pretty and well made even if the machining wasn't quite right for fitment. But I did want to let everyone know that the levers weren't plug-and-play.

Hmmm.
I didn't have any problems. In fact I had to shim the clutch side with a washer to make a more snug fit.
