So I'm looking around for a brake lever for rear brake that is lower and has a bigger spot to press down. I know Baldwin makes a extension but does anybody body else make a whole lever

Anybody? Maybe a adjustable brake pedal. Or is cut and weld the only way? Please help!!

Never seen anything like you want. I think cut and weld is your only option.

Do you really use the back brake that much? I hardly ever used mine unless Im coasting down a hill.

thanks! and its not hard at all to make. i just made a card bored template from a stocker and transferred that to steel. its hard to see in the pid but it even has the 2 bents to move the peddle part out from the motor. to make the peddle part i just cut out a rectangle notched the to pf it then got vice grips do hold it to a socket and i used a hammer to bean the metal around the socket. :macho
