Hi All,

My brass nut has just come loose on my 79 series I. Anyone have this problem before? Can I repair this myself or need to take it to a pro, or send it back to Alembic? Thanks!

Non adjustable, right? A drop of superglue will hold it in place. When you want to remove it, the bond is brittle and is easily displaced.

Funny you mention this, because the nut on my '76 Series 1 fell off years ago. I never bothered to fix it, because it did not seem to matter. Now that I know how, I'll probably fix it.
