Martin Reynolds Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) I recently got an Echo sl back brake, everythings been going hunky dory so far. I notised where the tpa shaft goes through the lever, theres alot of damage. (looks like the flat edge which is ment to prevent the shaft from turning has been wearing away at the lever). I was wondering is it as straight forward as drilling and tapping an hs33 lever (where the bolt goes through) and fitting it? I did a test fit tonight and it looks like it will work Also, does anyone know if/where you can buy the brass bushes that are fitted to the SL body? Me being fussy, but mine are worn and i'd like to change them Edited April 1, 2011 by Martin Reynolds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isitafox Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 I think you just have to file a bit off the hs33 levers to get them to fit, Stan from tartys runs his with a maggie lever so may be worth pming him about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Reynolds Posted April 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Lever modified, fits a treat. been for a ride and its spot on. I think the tpa pin is longer, so i should have more adjustment. Pictures on facebook because i couldnt be bothered to compress pictures, blah blah blah http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=469927&id=728430226&l=4506577864 Anyone know where i can get the brass/bronze bushes?
