Just to let you know ive had the clutch apart..........
And back together
and apart again........
Turns out that what I recon has happened is that the new (3 weeks old) clutch cable seems to have drastically stretched (in an extreamly short time
somehow).... which in turn allowed pull rod to rotate far enough that the pull leaver shaft disengaged.. therefor no clutch.
So now its back to bike shop to see what they are going to do about the cable.
Thanks for you help guys.
