Ok, so I've forgotten how it goes back together....

Ok, rear brake pedal. Starting from the main axle "hole" which holds the pedal and the foot peg, to the front of this is a little arm (facing opposite direction to the pedal part of the whole brake pedal assembly) and to the rear of the axle are two little holes. One of these two little holes, the larger of the two, is joined to the hydraulic brake bit via a nut and a cotter pin. The smaller of the two holes is apparently doing nothing...

The "little arm" is currently holding both the return spring for the brake pedal and the spring thingy for the brake light switch. I'm pretty certain that this held both springs before but I'm concerned by the afore mentioned smaller of the two holes at the back of the pedal (ie. the very rear most hole on the pedal cast) that's apparently sat doing nothing.

On the plus side, it seems to work ok :D

Teehee, not sure if that's supposed to inspire confidence :D Meh, it seems to work ok, wonder what that other hole is for then, for luck? Thanks Stu+nutter, daft how fiddly things like pedals and bar ends get.
