It was parked in the garage, and then I found the front brake lever smashed off. I don't know what else is damaged other than the brake lever. There was an adjustment screw on the lever which is no longer there. What should I do to fix it?

Buy new lever. Install same.

I busted a clutch lever recently and managed the above. If I can do it, you surely can Smokey.

p.s. I hope you kicked shit outa the suitcase..?

Do you really need someone to advise you to replace the lever?

It depends on whether the handles broken off - if so get a new suitcase cause you cant get replacement handies. If its s trolley one and the wheels are broken you are probably also stuffed. Buy a backpack not too many things can break on them!!

I wasn't sure if anything else was fucked as well, that's why I asked. With the force involved something else could have broken, and since I'm unfamiliar with how the lever is mounted I decided to ask.

Once you get it fitted, I hear there's an AA man in Auckland that's a pro at lever adjustments.
