The only avantage is that it makes the pads come together at the same time.but if you insist on gettin one you can get the bolt thing from here link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt! Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 (edited) you should be able to fing everything at tartybikes to fix your damaged break, take a look: here Edited September 23, 2006 by matt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrBENN Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 You could get one of them new zoo levers i have herd excellent things about them how there strong and that go to tarty and they will sort something out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will17will17 Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 he's has a 04 lever and body, so the zoo levers wont fit as they ar made for 05 and 06, and (matt!) you cannot get what he needs from tartybikes, because he needs the little pin that stops the fluid coming out of you cylinders, the ones which are already on a standard HS33 need hose connected to them due to the bridge. Greeny wants a splitter as I understand is what CraigLeeScott has on his Zoo! Python 07 if everyone has seen the pictures which I am sure you have. Anyway Greeny was asking where he could get the little bolt from so he can have a hose splitter, my advise would be to e-mail Cleanbikes because they sell monty parts and don't the new montys come with splitters, so they might have an idea where to get one, or might have one to sell you. I looked on there site and can't see any for sale but they still might have some.... Hope this helps at all..... lmao Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
