Borat Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 I too snapped my sd7 lever, so I am now using the because lever, and it has to be the best lever I have ever used!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogre Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) bargain! as for cable, XTR cable if you can find/afford it, it's really smooth etc. if you're keen on sticking with cable brakes, use some of your £40 to buy some good cable cutters there worth investing in you can even get your mates to pay a few quid to use em...

jordan allsop Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I've need to buy a brake lever for a Bb7 cable brake before and so far so good i would highly recommended this lever because its cheap and does its job http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?product_id=10128&category_id=71 hope it helped.
