What is the name of this part

biketortionist · 02-12-2012, 04:46 AM

The picture above is not my bicycle, but it is a good enough one to illustrate what I am trying to find out about the inner brake levers part name.

What is the name of the pin that goes in the lever to hold it in place. I need to get a new one, my other one fell out somewhere.

Any help appreciated.

It is I guess a pivot pin. I have fitted one like this on a Fixie and by what I have seen it should not just fall out.

Pivot pin. Interupter brake lever pivot pin. If possible, take the bike to your lbs and show them what is missing. They might have a replacement part.
