My new Whalen's brake handle....

Ok so I go my new Whalen's brake handle yesterday and had time to install it today. Here are some pictures.

It is amazing the difference this piece makes. Doug this is just about as perfect as they come. Great job and the instructions were dead on.





Here is a old picture that you can see the stock brake handle:

Here is a quote from Doug on pricing.

Brushed aluminum are $75.00; black anodized aluminum are $80.00.

I'll have a new person maintaining my website soon, or else have an entirely new site made up. I'm not having any luck at all with getting my current website guy to add e-brake info; perhaps he's fled the country.
