#1 New handbrake mechanism

Post by Spark » Sat Oct 31, 2015 10:00 pm

Hi
Have refitted the IRS with a new cable handbrake mechanism

Do I need a new handbrake cable as the travel, seems excessive even with the outer wound fully back
I'm concerned that with some use the cable will stretch and become ineffective

Any feedback please
Thanks
