I made such a rookie mistake and broke the tip of this pivot bolt. Now my fixed gear bike doesn’t have a brake anymore 😭. I cannot find this replacement online. Help 🙏please! Many thanks in advance.

Honestly a replacement calliper is the easiest option.
Gives you a chance to upgrade a little bit as well
Any bike store will have several of these in a drawer somewhere. I don’t think I have seen the shafts sold separately. That Tektro 985 is a common BMX brake, still made today so you can get an exact replacement is you wish.
Just buy one a new one on marketplace. Winter time is the best time to buy bikes from it
I’m thinking to replace the whole brake too. Thanks for the advices so far.
