Handbrake & clutch all in one

A buddy was telling me about a H/B setup with a shorty clutch lever full length rear lever all in one that bolts right on and ties into your rear master cylinder, eleminating the rear resevior... no dual caliper

Has anyone seen this, Who makes it.

Re: Handbrake & clutch all in one

never tried it but most people didnt give good feedback on it.

but thats what people think about the new FTI handbrake and i think it works GREAT.

so in other words, I guess you gotta just try it out and see for yourself

I am not a fan of the new full throttle setup but it actually works. When I rode a bike with the gp tech master/clutch lever setup it was the worst handbrake I have ever used.

Re: Handbrake & clutch all in one

I've never rocked a hand brake.... whats to like/dislike from one kit to the next

If not the GP tech does anyone else offer a kit without adding a caliper?

Re: Handbrake & clutch all in one

I do thank your guys all for your feedback... but its only half helpful

I know to steer clear of the GP setup but I dont know why.... I know the FTI & HoHey are two kits I should look in to.... but I dont know why

Dont get me wrong guys Im not trying to be an ******* but Im thinking if im going to drop $350-$500 buck I should know what Im looking for

Is it stopping power, am I looking for a stiff lever Is one kit made better then the other and might last longer????


Thanks again guys

Re: Handbrake & clutch all in one

you are better off having a dual setup so you always have your hand brake and the foot brake so if one fails you got the other
