    Brake lever wiggle room

    My front brake lever actually has some free wiggle play before it engages. Like probably at least a half inch of movement distance at the knobby end. After that it seems to engage fine to me. Can I adjust it so that no longer happens? I couldn't find relative results after searching.

    you need some sort of free play on the lever, otherwise it would be on all the time. that kind of play you describe sounds about right

    Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!
