    Great news, my brain was thinking "wire coat hanger" with one end flattened and / or a using thin " Kite line" to try and lasso it. So pleased you have saved yourself a few bob.

    Always thought it was never a great design! I might get a new one when I do my 60k service just to be safe.

    Seen this one from CravenSpeed LINK but it does seem a tad expensive?
