Brake lever?

Now then im after a break lever to sit on my bars i want a 26ish mm bmx type( on drops) but am having trouble finding one, do they not come in that size...and i do not trust my self with the breaklesssssss option....i would hurt myselff...badly

been trough the regular bike online bits...no joy.

don;t know its dimensions but check out diatech gold finger levers. £14ish from condor but you could probably get them cheaper online

left or right?

Here's one..

left and right?

Have a look at the e-levers - they are designed to fit a 26.0 track bar and are much nicer than the diatech option.

Sorry guys - point taken...

them e-lever's don't have a hinge which is a bit of a shame

I want one of these

right hand, thanks Hippy does the red button shoot out rockets or is it a panic button???

just after i put the post up i saw the your post freshtripe. ill have to wait till pay day.....or will I.....

cheers prototype i may pop in to condor....just fixed the old hood back on so will be running with that for a while.
cheeers people

specialized cross-top levers are nice, £15 a pair, black only, but i dunked mine in oven cleaner for 15mins, sanded a bit (lot), autosol and now they are super bling. They are also hinged, which makes swapping bar/stem to flats dead easy.

I haven't got a problem with people like Freshtripe, Scott and Roberto sharing what they have available, in fact I have just ordered an E-Lever because of his post !

I am sure many of you know where to find Frestripe, but to newer users who don't, Londonfgss is a great resource for this kind of information.

don't suppose you've got the left lever left over have you mercianary?

fc9k: yeah, i have, it's still black though! i only stripped one of them! Whisper me if you want it.

it's not like he was all "you want aerospok??"

Does anyone know if the Specialized 23.8 will 'stretch' round a constant diamter 26.0 bar? They do a 30.8 too which could be shimmed I guess. If anyone is looking for a pair I saw them in Cycle Surgery Holborn, £15 I think.

You can get these shipped to UK for £15 too:

i'm not too sure what diameter mine are, but they fit perfectly around nitto 123aas, so must be around 24/25mm dia

Good job mercianary.
Great minds think alike.

there's sharing and there's sharing..

a little too much from mr fresh tripe with his levers, advertising his shop from the classifieds.

once trade sellers start all that this forum will quickly turn to shit.

and it's David's call at the end of the day, not your's or mine.
but every forum I've ever seen has some kind of ruling to cull too much free publicity.

he could of PM'd , but but what is the difference between me saying freshtripe or recommending wiggle.

mercianary, yours came out better than mine, i put it in acid ( a little too strong and a little long) and ended up with something with craters in it :D . alternatively you could poach them of a london langster ;)

Fair do's - I overstepped the mark (just too excited about these levers..!)

I should have PM'd (normally do) - I don't appreciate a hard sell either...won't happen again, sorry.

Like I said, this kind of thing does't bother me, I would rather hear about a new bag design from Scott or about a handful (excuse the pun!) of brake levers that someone has managed to source.

And yes it is David's call, not yours or mine, it is not myself or even David in this instance who is policing the forums, protecting forums members from the threat of information.

Like you say it's not your call.

;P

prat

...

For clarity, this is my point:

If Scott wants to show me his new bags, Roberto show me some new rims he has just sourced or Frestripe tell me about some brake levers he has recently got - personally that is all good with me.

PRM, apologies if stating my opinion throws you into such a rage. (your above post - now edited - questioning my status as a schoolchild and telling me to 'fuck off').

Cheer up, no offense taken on this side. :)
