On my DaHon Speed TR folder, it had brake levers, branded DaHon with a
longer handle than other levers I've seen, about 1" longer. One of the
levers broke in half and I haven't been able to find a suitable replacement.

DaHon was no help in getting a replacement, ever since Pete Mole passed
away the company has been in decline in the U.S..

I replaced both of the levers with

but the levers are too short.

Where can I find longer brake levers?


Amazon lists some that are called "4 finger" levers. Qikour is one
maker. $15.80 a set.


4 finger is longest I've seen these days, but be careful, mileage varies
and some are closer to 3 than 4.
