Hi Guys,
I have to replace the brake handle in my '74. Seems like some of the teeth are missing on the ratchet.
Anyone else have a spare that is in good shape and they're willing to part with?
Thanks,
Mike

I had the same issue @mmichalik with the “catcher” (two teeth that keeps the handle up.

Good luck finding one.

Good ones are getting hard to find. If you are interested in repairing yours I may have some parts handles I can sell for parts. New ones are about $170 as I recall.

Hi Bruce,
Are they difficult to rebuild? I know that's a subjective term but if not I would be happy to take one or two off of your hands.
