Got the right year.
Tried finding relevant thread.
Got distracted by Craig Charles show...
Is it just the housing that needs fettling or am I better taking a bit off the lever n all?
Ta up front!

He's good that Craig Charles fella isn't he Andy

haven't done it myself but I think I'd rather fettle the lever, less of a problem if it doesn't go quite right

I must admit, I have always modified the housing, but that me all over: Living life on the edge.
Have a look at the photo on the MB website: you can almost cut a cardboard template from it.

I use modified Yammy SR125 levers. Its important to make sure that when pulling your choice of lever in.....that only the cable nipple is in contact with lever. If the inner cable touches the radius of the lever it will place stress here and it will probably snap within 500 miles. ( speaking from experience here).
Dont know if this is an issue with RD levers.
