25.4 Brake Lever
Where can I buy a brake lever with a 25.4 diameter that I can buy a single brake for?

Is the Tektro FX2 a solution? What would you all recommend - I want something small for just in case.

I run a 26.0 diameter brake lever with a small piece of innertube underneath it for a shim on my 25.4 bars.

this is the brake setup: https://bikeisland.com/cgi-bin/BKTK_S...ls&ProdID=1085

Just about any BMX or CX lever will work. Search the forums tons of threads on this.
