Hi All,
I see in the manual that you're supposed to replace the existing handle on the monowheel brake with a LG13, which didn't find its way into my kit. Anyone know the dimensions of this item?
Thanks,
Dan

Dan - the crucial dimensions are at the bottom end, where you need to
make the hole sizes, and their relationships to the edges and end of
the lever, the same as the original short supplied lever.
The top end can be (within reason) as long as you like, to get a good
grip on it. Don't make the lower handle-securing hole so low that it
fouls the top of the tunnel.
I can't get at mine easily to measure it as it's attached to the
reservoir, and hidden inside a turned mahogany handle (which also
extends it slightly).
Attached is a picture of the new lever before the handle was fitted
to it. Sorry, I don't seem to have a picture of both levers for
comparison.
regards
Rowland

Hi Rowland,
This looks like I imagined it. The original is 7" so if I add about 4" I'm sure to be good. Thanks for taking time to reply.
All the best,
Dan

<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Dan,
I think I have a spare LG13 from a conversion, although I usually make my own.
I'll look.
Let me know if you are interested. Pay for postage.

Thanks all for the responses. I found some stock laying around and made one up. Works great and I was able to continue with the brake install without stopping. Made for a nice father's day, beatin' things into shape.
Thanks again,
Dan
