      Hello Ian,
      I personally have no success gluing broken plastic load bearing parts in these situations because even the best glue or epoxy fix is too weak for the beating the front fork withstands with the toy EK hanging on. He will fall or fly off before leaving the takeoff ramp every time.
      I am a persistent DIY'er to a point--but here I'd give up on glue and bend and trim 4" or so of a coat hanger to shape and wrap it to the front fork (along the vertical fork on the broken side) with duct tape so the EK figure can grip it. A shorter piece of coat hanger fastened to the unbroken opposite handlebar (horizontal above the gas tank) might keep EK hanging on for a few more hard landings before you must face the facts and buy a new Stunt Cycle.
      If your Stunt Cycle is not a great jumper don't even waste your effort-- order another Stunt Cycle on E-Bay, move on, and keep catching air with a fresh start. Thanks and Be Well, JP

      Hi Cameron--that's a good idea--can you recommend a # or diameter machine screw that has worked for you? Thanks! JP
