Re: [ST] RE: (ST) whoa, rear brake lever adjusts!

[Euan Sellar <euan.sellar@xxxxxxxxx>]

My advice is DON'T lower the brake pedal whatever you do. Already as is, the stock
pedal will dig into the road if you ride aggresively 'round right-handers. It will
bend outward and, of course, break when you try to straighten it back in again. And
a replacement pedal doesn't come cheap.

Cheers,

Euan
