Thumb Brake

[neats]

Does ne1 know where i can buy a thumb brake from in Wellington? Hurt my right hand and can't operate the front brake. Tried brake and clutch clevers on same side but didn't work for me ... Cheers, Neats

Maybe you can try One Armed Bandit. He is a single armed rider/racer in Chch. He should be able to give you the full gos. on modifications needed.

I used a thumb throttle off a 4 wheeler to operate the rear brake (I have right ankle issue) the only problem I had was the pressure required to activate the brake. But as stated above “One Arm Bandit” may have the perfect answer for you.

OAB's bad arm is his left, so he can use the brake fine, but I think he has a thumb-clutch.

Have a look in the US, they're often used in stunting for the rear brake, but it wouldn't any issue to make it a front brake instead. You might loose some 'feedback' on the brakes tho, so it could take some getting used to
