Front brake lever

[ChrisZx7]

Looking to buy new front brake lever / perch. I dont want OEM because i dont want the whole parking brake or rear brake controlled by it.

So can i just buy a regular lever / perch like the clutch side and use for front brake?

Yup, just take out the rear cable to the foot lever

They also make easy pull levers an perches you can look into to replace that with.

I orderd a moose lever/perch off ebay.

I dont like the rear and front being controlled by one lever while riding either, but it is a great idea for goin up steep hills (if u can't make it)

Personally i think its a dumb set up. Just another mechanism bound to break.

Yep, more money for parts

Pretty much. Not like this build isn't costing a lot anyways.

Lol I've learned budgets go out the window when the 1st bolt is removed. Well with me anyways cause there is always somethin else you want to add. I personally just bought the shorty rear cable and said screw the parking brake. When it cones time to replace front cable then ill prob replace perch and lever but for now it works great
