CravenSpeed Stainless Hand Brake Handle now fits F55/F56/F57

Hello everyone! Logan with CravenSpeed here, just letting you guys know that our stainless hand brake handle is now compatible with the F55, F56, and F57 (Clubman and Countryman don't have a hand brake lever). We have accomplished this by designing an ABS part that allows the lever cover to attach to the base of the handle. The handle has always fit the lever itself, but we didn't have a clean way to attach the cover and weren't happy releasing an unfinished product. Anyhow, here's what it looks like in the car:



You can order here: https://www.cravenspeed.com/hand-brake-handle-for-mini/

If you haven't heard, we now offer free domestic shipping and orders placed before 1:00pm PST will ship the same day. These handles will ship via USPS Priority Mail, so you've still got time to get one for Christmas.

I got my hand brake handle the other day. It's added to the "To Do" stack of parts. It's a nice looking part and looks to be up to the CravenSpeed high standards we've come to expect.

Conservative estimate? Probably not more than 10 unless you go with the high compression floor-mats.

Nice, I hope someone gets you one! Sadly for 3rd Gen MINIs the shift well cover gets a bit complicated. They aren't quite as simple and keeping the price reasonable is tough.

Butt dyno says +10% more faster.

Yep I love their shift well cover too. Had one on my R56. Driving mode switch location kinda screws us on the 3rd Gens. If they had one that would fit I could forgo the normal and green modes since mines coded to start up in Sport.

Careful with those. I had knit compaction issues with the JCW HC mats. Replaced them with firmer all-weather natural flex polymer mats and my 0-60 is nearly a second better and the quarter mile gates at +12 mph!!1!
