Brake levers for kids

tdmcdermott · 07-12-2009, 10:12 PM

I'm replacing the brake levers on my son's bike because they are too far away from the grips. He has trouble reaching them. He's 7.
Any suggestions on better replacements that come closer the grips?

Nothing specific, but I think BMX parts might often have kids hands in mind. Also, many but not all levers have a "reach adjustment" so you can set them for smaller hands as well. Make sure to look for something with that feature.
