Hi, everyone,

By any chance, anyone has a faulty Mega Drive 1800i?

I've wrecked a thread on the mounting plate and can't screw in a mount anymore.

Message Lezyne about this but nothing good came out of this.

I've attached which particular plate I'm after but could be the whole faulty unit

which thread is stripped? you can repair threads with something called a helicoil (brand name, plenty of cheap ones available too). essentially it comes as a kit that helps you tap a larger thread, then you insert the coil into the larger thread and it makes it back into the original size thread. possibly worth a try?

edit: not that you asked for advice, but apparently I can't help myself.

You might also be able to repair that using a rivnut - but there's a bit more depth to a rivnut. I've used them with a bit of epoxy. You don't have to use the rivnut tool - as long as its a tight fit.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
