    Default Where can I buy Lamonster Brake Rods?

    Okay ... this old man is not all that tech savvy. I read somewhere while waiting to pick up my F3 about the Lamonster brake rods and how they "lower" the brake position.

    Anyway, I have now picked up the New to Me 2019 Spyder F3 Limited. It has the position 4 rod, and that seems fine, just want to "lower" the brake height to make braking more ergonomic.

    Now I can't find where to purchase these.

    Thanks in advance ... wish they made "seeing eye bots" for us old folks ... LOL

    Disclaimer ... spent about an hour searching ... never been good at that.

    Go to Lamonstergarage.com. Lamont sells the #4 rod that will lower your brake pedal.

    Ya, I see what you mean, I just tried to look them up on the warehouse I use for you, the website was not really helpful. I would say your best means of getting that rod right for you would be your dealer or find a welder that wants to work with you and get it right for you. It should not be that big of a deal to fine tune that for you. Good Luck!

    If you haven't already ordered one from Lamonster, I'm selling a brand new one - Lamonster Brake Rod #4. I got it to try over my #3 but it stretched my legs out too much so doesn't work for me.

    1st up. I would be very careful with lowering the pad.

    It has to be able to operate the brake.


    I put an adjustable one on mine. Works well.

    I had a 4 on it when I bought it. Then made a 5. Bought the one below.

    I raised the pedal so I could get my foot under the pad when just kicking along. Try it - you may like it.
    It may work for you and the braking is controlled.
    You have to lift your foot in a car, after all . Majic.

    Why wouldn’t you simply go to the Lamonster website to buy the modified Lamonster brake rods, Mikey?
