    Installation of front brake lever!?

    Hey guys. My front brake lever snapped off.. Don't even ask lol
    But i should be getting the part in soon and was wondering how to install it myself. I just didn't want any brake fluid leaking on me ans such. I know there are screws that i must take off. but yeah any advice would be great. thanks!

    Pretty easy, and shouldn't involve any fluid.

    There is 1 bolt that behaves as an axle. There will be a nut on the bottom. If you take that off you should be able to push the pivot bolt out through the top and the lever will pop off.

    Here is a drawing showing the assembly. Parts number 8, 9 and 10 are the ones you're interested in.

    Good luck!

    that bolt on the bottom should be an 8mm or 10mm socket. That looks like thats all you will need.
