Hi Rupert

The two ratchets are shown diagrammatically on the A7 Components web site under brakes. 

https://www.a7c.co.uk/spares.php#nogo 

From memory the uncoupled ratchet has a longer plain section, the coupled ratchet has more curvature.

Ratchets do wear so for the money it is probably worth replacing them.

Cheers

Howard
Hi Rupert

One other thing….Check that the brake cam bushes are not worn.

Cheers

Howard
