I have had the MD-180 for about two weeks, and 1O outings, and this afternoon the reverse cable sheared at the shifter. What is the part number for both the forward and reverse cables, and is there a recommend way to remove the threaded end of the shift cable from the shifter? It sheared below the plastic hex piece used to screw it into the shifter. I looked on the forums, and could not find anything, but I am sure this has come up before.

I believe you are referring to the tendon that has the loop on the end to pull for shifting?

Any MD180 model: https://www.hobie.com/support/mirage-sport/

81486001 HANDLE & TENDN MD180 FWD
81000801 STICKER - FWD, GREEN
81491001 HANDLE & TENDON MD180 REV
81000901 STICKER - REV, RED

81493001 LEVER SHIFTER RIGHT / REVERSE
81496001 LEVER SHIFTER LEFT / FORWARD

Likely you would have to replace the shifter as well. This should all be covered under warranty, so see your dealer.

Yeah, I am going to do that, but want to pick one each for emergency. A zip tie gets me by, but hurts the fingers! :)

Thanks.
