Just had them repaired. The guy who made them said they did exactly what they are supposed to.
Cost me $110 to get the pans and jacket repaired (part of the sleeve needed to be replaced too). Advantage of buying local gear.
Thought I'd give Tiger Angel a bit of a plug. :D Apparently Steve at TA raced bikes for 16 years and his stuff reflects that.

not to bad don't feel pain now and not on any meds but they still tell me to take them
also still deciding whether or not to go through with the surgery
so far seen 3 bone surgeon, 2 shoulder specialist and a shit load of different doctors to get some info almost all of them have told me surgery is not needed although i am only concerned with the surgery since someone said that later down the years might give u problems and end up loosing all your strength in the shoulder so i am pretty much still unsure on a side note flipping a coin would help with the decision as well :lol:

but i've been made aware of some minor complications that might happen
screws coming of as they don't use strong ones, screws being drilled to far in hitting a nerve (loose the entire right arm), hitting an artery well you know what happens there, and infections

i wish, but when the future of my wanking arm is in question money is not a problem :lol:
besides spending a grand and something on information or regretting later on when you've lost all strength in your arm which sounds like the more viable option?
yea unfortunately private doctors / surgeons /specialists are not covered by medicare but its alright i suppose nothing mores important then getting back on your bike i mean health :lol:

panadol doesnt seem to work for me used to pop 5 of those at once to feel some relief of pain where as when i use ibuprofen its much better only require 1 as panadol = paracetamol not really made for muscular pains more for fevers
