Does anyone know where I can get a tap and die set? I see that Maplin sell them but I've seen very similar looking ones on websites for half that price! (although £22 seems quite reasonable if it's decent quality) Halfords also do them but they're more expensive. B&Q and Homebase don't sell them. Ideally I'm looking to get one today rather than buy online and wait. There's a couple of local places I can try but I'm not sure they'll be open on Bank Holidays

Thanks for the offer, I think the problem solved (for now anyway). I couldn't get a brake lever bolt to tighten up and looking in the hole I couldn't see any threads. I took a drill to it and a load of thread shaped swarf came out - and I managed to get a different bolt in ;D I just need to Dremmel a bolt for the other side now and all will be well
