Hello!!

I'm reopening this thread to see if I could get some ideas from you folks.
I just got a second hand Dahon Classic V, it's quite ok, but some parts are a bit rusty. I want to slowly restore it, step by step since I'm a totally amateur mechanic.


For now my main problem is that there is a bit of movement in the strut-handlebar connection. I have taken some pictures to illustrate the issue since my english is also far from perfect.
There is a broken rubber joint shown in the following picture. It's old and broken.


Should I buy a new O-Ring, will that be enough to stop the wobbly movement? Or should I use other material, like any rubber or I don't know to make it steady?



I have cleaned and lubricated any other part of the bike but I can't open this... Any idea how or what tool should I use?

Thanks!
