I've had a look at the JTek cable doubler, & I like the idea of that solution, but the price does seem a bit steep.
I think I like the silicon tape idea best - least obtrusive, pretty cheap & gives some of the springy lever action I'd like if I do grip the lever - I'll give it a shot, cheers!

Ha, just trying to resolve issues with this one before selling it.
Got it off in a bit of uncouth manner - sawed a slot then rammed a drill bit in & torqued away. Can confirm now that the faceplate actually was made of cheese - so easy to cut even with a blunt hacksaw. On this note, I would not recommend Samox bike parts (crankset came on my Croix de Fer).
-
Not completely, but they were loosened before I tried taking off the faceplate.

I've managed to strip the end-of-axle faceplate thing (which appears to be made of cheese) on these cranks trying to take them off. Anyone got any ideas on how to get them off? I have no love for the cranks.

Is there a best technique for preventing the rear brake lever from going all floppy when only running a front brake? I guess putting a cable in & clamping it on the bars somehow?

Good communication & fast payment from @offensiveapple, pleasure doing business!

I have a CdF (as does another friend) & four friends have Brother Kepler Discs - we all rate them really highly. Great, versatile bikes.
I managed to get a carbon fork for mine too for not much on here (same is available for less than a hundred quid on eBay), half the weight of the steel one!
