Snapped the inner and outer jockey wheel cage when riding today 
No idea what caused it, was riding up a climb when the pedals stopped and i hear the prang of my rear mech fucking up! One bit flew off, never to be found again!
I managed to make a bodge repair, shortening the chain and running it single speed, just to get me home (most boring ride home ever, maxed out at about 10mph!!!), but the mech needs repairing. Im just wondering before i order a whole new rear mech, does anyone on here have a spare cage (maybe you've upgraded to a one up cage or damaged the top half of your mech) that i could buy?
Typical, it happens when i've got a week off college! The ride was good though, tried the GoPro mounted to the stem which looks pretty cool, and got a few pics on me phone
Cheers!
