you can get metal half moons from rossi for like $15, just gotta talk to them or call your local shop and see if they have any around.

I'm pretty sure that's part of the brake that evo sells as a replacement... the dude must've not understood what you meant when you were saying heel.

what you need isnt the half moon then, the half moon is just the metal piece that the back two binding screws go through. if your just missing that plasic piece i wouldnt worry about it, its just part of the forward pressure indicator, which is not dependable anyway.

Those metal half moon pieces are plastic on some pivots, and when one goes the brake stays deployed when your boot is in, which is trouble. It's a super cheap part, but it's a bitch to find. If you bring a rack of beer to a shop someone might be bothered to request a part through Rossi or look, if they even do sell that separate anymore.

Also - Hey Rossi/Look, sell these parts online please?

yea, I understand, I have an old set with plastic half moons, but he is saying that he broke the other plastic piece right behind the half moon, which just presses on the forward pressure indicator.

And look/ rossi do sell metal half moons if you contact them, they are $15 for a set.
