Hi,
I have bought one of these Handlebar brake kits for my F3

HandBrake for SPYDER F3 and TUV Test Report | MartinTheVlogger https://share.google/B6wXa02gefXg2fllv
Has anyone else on here fitted one?

I am having problems setting it up.

TIA

Have you spoken with Martin about the problems you are having?

He may have a video out there of the installation of the system! Check his blog!

I have been communicating with Pali @ MTV, they are not sure what the fault is but have contacted the manafacturers. I wondered if someone on here has had the same problem.

Yes he has a very good fitting video which I followed.

I've also been contemplating the hand brake. So far, almost everyone who has one has had issues with it. The spyder mechanic I frequent, who has installed them, tells me, "Forget it! It's a waste of time and money. Your OEM foot brake is designed to activate the entire system for a reason. But if you pay me twice what it costs, I'll put one on for you, and I'll almost guarantee you won't be happy with it in the end. I told him when I panic stop, I'm always reaching for that right-hand front brake lever. He said, "Yep, I do exactly the same thing, but it's not going to make you stop any faster." Well,,,, $HITT! LOL
