Introducing Orangina/Brake Handle on T7
Yes, the stock brake hose is too short to reach the prong on the T7 handle. Mine is less than a year old so I doubt they changed it. You might want to contact Unicycle.Com to verify the length of the hose. The repair kit is for a normal two brake bicycle setup and comes with parts and tubing that you won't use and it is not cheap. I ordered the repair kit from my local bike shop who ordered it directly from Magura. -- unipsychler Interested in learning to ride the unicycle QUICKLY AND SAFELY?

I got a front brake off ebay, then paid another £20 for the kit to extend it so it would fit. It's useful stuff to have if I ever damage a hose on my 36" or muni though so I'm not too bothered. -- kington99 Dave - what a thoroughly post-modern subversion of the cycling genre - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kington99's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9417 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58321 |

Introducing Orangina/Brake Handle on T7
i am right handed, and always hold my handle/saddle with my left hand. but if im cruising along the flat i put my right hand on aswell. my left hand is much more unco than my right hand, but i find braking to be ok with my left hand, its not that bad, i'm getting used to it. -- iridemymuni maker of the happy birthday threads ive got: John Childs, Klaas Bill, Kris Holm, Samia, Harper, Bryan Stevens, Wobbling bear, Mike Swarbrick, Cathwoood, Scott Wallis, Mikefule, Raphael (jjuggle), James Potter, ITEMNO530, DogBowl, Yoopers, Habbywall, Terry and Jagur. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iridemymuni's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/11900 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58321 |

I rest my left hand on the left prong for most of the time, and occasionally have both left and right resting together. However, I'm not sure that I trust my left hand for braking either. Hmmm... I should get the brakes for this weekend, so I'll see what feels comfortable I guess. STM When I ordered mine, Roger asked which hand I usually rest on the handle (left hand) and he put the break on that one. -- cathwood Cathy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cathwood's Profile: http://www.unicyclist.com/profile/9425 View this thread: http://www.unicyclist.com/thread/58321 |
