Please help me
I have a shimano derailler and there is a washer/bracket thing that has an alan nut going through which holds the wire when tightened. I accidentally snapped the lip off of the washer thing that holds the wire. Does anyone know where i can get a new one/ what is it called?
thank you

they aren't all the same, but that little bent/curved tab probably isn't critical if what's left is holding the cable. you can probably make something with a washer, if you had to
I know a bike shop that has a bone-yard out back where a person could probably scavenge something useful. maybe check with your town dump
