MPH 3 hydraulic brakes - I believe these are the same as Hope C2. They have a reservoir on the brake lever with a small screw used for bleeding. There is a rubber O ring and brass cup or cap. It is this brass ring that has split, so I cannot make a seal. Any ideas for a replacement? Picture below. Internal diameter approx 6mm and external 12mm Thanks

if no joy with bike shops etc We use a company called Blackwell Hyraulics Ltd. and they usually can get hold of most fitting we use similar items for sealing injectors. Not sure were your based but they cover most of North Wales www.blackwellhydraulics.co.ukGood luck

Tried B&Q or Wilko?
Other thing would be to see if you can get a broken lever off somewhere like eBay and cannibalise it for the part.

Thanks for suggesting Blackwell Hydraulics. The chap at the Llandudno Junction branch disappeared for a few minutes and came back with something that seems to do the job.
