Re: 1finger lock up

even though its for the right side of the bars flipping the brembo 16x18 over to the left will still make it work good

Re: 1finger lock up

my setup sucks! mainly cause i have to run my HB on top, and i can only get a grip on the top 1/2 of the lever... if i could use the bottom 1/2 i could get alot more leverage out of it.... but no matter how i stack them i cant set it up right
