I don't know what kind of clutch I have in the machine I just picked up, but even after lubing the cable, it takes about 10 lbs of force to pull it in all the way. I don't have $200 to drop on a Magura, but it couldn't be TOO hard to make one work from something else. Street bike maybe? Anyone ever tried?

I love the hydraulic Jack lever. It's saved me from arm pump so many times, I don't miss the days pryor to having it. I bought one with a leaking slave and ordered an upgraded larger slave from magura. If you do go magura only use baby oil or mineral oil, anything else will ruin the seals. I know you said it was pricey but I think grand total was just at or right below $200 for everything.
