In need of a break lever by Sunday?

[Branbb60]

Hello.

My front break lever does not work, for some reason the lever does not intake break fluid from the valve inside the reservoir.

I have had someone look at it and they said I will most likely need a new one.

My CBT is Saturday and I was hoping to get going on Sunday but at this moment in time it appears unlikely without a front break.

With it being good Friday, everywhere is closed.

Not sure what to do here, anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

There are dealers in Coventry and Leamington. Try phoning them and see if they have anything on the shelf. Otherwise it looks like EBay shops and nothing till Wednesday

the only reason the brake lever would not work is if it is broken i suggest you check the actuating arm in the master cylinder and make sure it isnt stuck in and it could also be air trapped in the brake line somewhere

You can't ride your bike to your CBT I think you said in other thread you wanted to ride it ASAP after CBT so just ignore me if so.

Yeah I know, I passed however. Just need to get my bike sorted and hopefully we're good to go

It was broken on the valve that is pushed in as you squeeze the lever. It wasn't coming back fast enough and it wasn't sending break fluid down the lines.
