 yeah you could order some .

take it you do not have a  man  shed Cal ?   I save screws bolts bits of hose off cuts of metal rubbers srings allsorts realy and they always find a use on bikes .

most ppl when getting rid of a old  washing machine or gas cooker  just chuck em out for the scrap man . having no idea how many pipes hoses nuts and bolts  along with clips are in there that can be used  not just for bikes but cars also .

 I agree kids  now days are crazy . not so long ago one of my sons mates got a flat tyre on a BMX his comment was alonge the lines of I need a new wheel or bike now .  something breaks they trash it and buy new no effort to fix it them self .

buying new or ebay are always a last resort for me  and its not down to money its just the way I was brought up reuse -fixit-or make it

Had this happen to me in an airplane about 4 years ago! Coming into land added a bit of power and just no response from the engine, basically ended with me in a field about a mile out from the runway! Oh the shame!
