Title: Hand brake cable
Post by: omega3000 on 28 November 2013, 14:02:23

Think mine needs replaced as the lever is at the top of its travel  :( , do they stretch ? And next question is where the best place to get one cheap  :-\

Replace rear shoes first. Yes they do strech,but not that much,sounds like shoes gone.

I changed mine on my old mfl and iirc it wasn't too expensive.
Need to remove the shields underneath and a ratchet spanner would be handy  :y
