Quoted from vid1900:[quoted image]
Since I always catch hell if I suggest doing a repair other than stock....
Pin-Logic sells a replacement button that you can put on the end of your crank.

$4 is a quick way to get a sloppy set of flippers flipping again.
Is it as good as switching back to old style mechs? Nope.
But it's cheap, quick and it works!
30 years latter, we finally got our replaceable nylon button.
Looks like the site is no more...I'm assuming that means that these are long gone / dead / no more, and thus the only real option is to just 'downgrade'?
I'm waiting on a response from PBR so I can order the parts, which I hope they have in stock..but barring that I may have to live with linear flippers for a bit I'm afraid, unless the button is available somewhere else (doubtful).
