    'Cat Detent

    My Thundercat is having issues where I will get rollouts while running. It's either detent or detent spring related. I'm not sure if my detent is worn down. Picture 1 shows the front profile (concave) and picture 2 shows the side profile (should this be a ramp all the way up rather than leveling off at the end?). It could also be the spring. I'm not sure that I'd be able to shim it and still have the detent still get adequate downward travel. Any recommendations for a stronger spring of a similar size?

    The detent looks normal. I would replace the spring, if you dont have a replacement , give it a good stretch. also check for burrs on the detent and in the upper part of the body. make sure it can go fully up.

      Thanks. I think that will do the trick. I might look for a pen spring to pop in in the future.
