Any suggestions on how I should go about correcting my brake lever. The owner that had my bike before me dropped it and it had bent the brake lever in. Now it is really hard to reach with my foot as I noticed the other day. Sad
Any suggestions?

Hi

You should be able to bend it back, but some heat (blow torch, etc) would probably help. Take the lever off the bike to do this.

All the best

Hey thanks again! That’s the kind of answer I was looking for! I was wondering about heating it. I will have to find someone who has a blowtorch now! Smile

Thanks again mate, appreciate it
