Making a few changes

[Paul C]

As a few of you would have seen from my tyre pressure thread I have a new toy.
Now this am I just went out on it without setting it up etc.
I was keen lol about 30 mins I to ride I altered brake levers and moved dropper Post lever. Made it better but I still need to tinker. I need to move dropper lever in I'm hopi g I can move it in more by taking it I side brake clamp. Anyone moved display Into centre ? Do the gear levers move singly? Ie if you move one forward you can keep other where it is?
Also I bent a break lever in a crash (I think I told you I was keen lol) where can I get a spare? I think this may bend back but won't hurt to have a spare it looks fragile.
Ive been told I can get a protector for the conroler/screen any links what best option?
Thanks for any answers in advance Paul

I move my rear brake lever in and put the seat dropper outside of it. Seems ok.

8-9 months ago, my then 12-year old grandson borrowed my bike and fell off on a rutted track. All seemed well, so he didn't tell me. When I rode the bike next, the big shifter lever was just bent enough that I could change one gear at a time, but any more and the lever got stuck behind the smaller lever. The bike mechanic put a ring spanner over the shifter and used it as a lever to straighten the shifter lever. It's been perfect ever since.

The mechanic told me what he was going to do and said that the lever might break. He asked permission before doing it.

When I told my grandson about the problem I'd had, he told me straight away that he'd fallen off and could that have been it? Bless him!

Brake levers are SRAM Code R MMX

A crowded bar with triggers overlapping the grips is my pet hate. Sounds like you've tried, but if you push the levers in as far as poss does that help with the dropper lever?

I ended up getting an MMX brake lever clamp and dropper lever in the end to get it where I wanted it.

I havnt really tried to be honenest. Just did a little tweak on the trail.
I went out on bike as shop set it up. I still need to raise seat post a little. Adjust all controls and possibly saddle.
1st thoughts are the bikes comfy just cockpit needs aittle attention.
