Anyone want to be famous? :D Now thats hard to find...most racers in higher classes have some sort of sponsorsh...

Might be good for the mean time :thinking:

Re: Clake-one lever

Thanks guys. I'm going to buy some softer grips to help with impact, and try bending the lever in the mean time. I think ill be going with a rekluse when I can afford it, it's good to now I can clutch as I normally would but on a long x-country I can let go from time to time, but also move the leve...

Re: Clake-one lever

Hi friends, I'm looking into the clake-one lever system, just curious if anyone has tried it, what are your thoughts? The Clake One, is designed to be used with a Rekluse. It applies the clutch and then the brake as the lever is pulled in. Perhaps you meant the Clake One Light Clutch, which is an a...

Re: Clake-one lever

Unfortunately I don't believe the Clake One reduces the clutch lever travel (i.e. reach), which I believe is what you are looking for. I'd add if reducing lever travel is what you are looking for, you definitely don't want the Midwest lever as it reduces pull force by increasing the lever travel (b...

Re: Clake-one lever

I haven't tried the Clake but I have tried the Midwest Mountain Engineering clutch lever. I really like it. Its a one finger clutch most of the time until your finger starts to get fatigue, then two fingers are needed. I don't know if that is something that would work for you. No I don't think so, ...

I'm interested because my hands are small and it seems the stretching and reaching whilst clutching has done enough damage that its now impacting my riding. Would really love to try ...

WTB: bullet proof front disc guard

It's a bit of a long shot, but if anyone is selling a bullet proof front disc guard that'll fit a 09' ktm 250 xc-w that'd be super, I'd buy it :D
