rear break lever end peg ????

Postby den » Tue Apr 22, 2014 3:59 am

Just what do you call the tiny teeny weeny end thing on the rear brake foot pedal.. :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :smt005

anyways ,, hands up who find this tiny piece of metal far to small to actually get any leverage on the rear brake? :smt006 :smt006 :smt006

So i took it upon myself to make some , and i've got one spare..
This new peg is 3cm and fits flush to the end of the lever

i could do a video if anyones really interested?

Now that's a good idea, I'm sure there are a lot of us without the skill, materials, and equipment that would happily pay for a better brake if you do make some more, please let me know.
