August 16, 201511 yr Hi just bought beta techno 250,1999? Want to replace rear brake lever but can't find one ,will one from a Rev 3 fit.this my first trials so new to trials any advice welcome
August 16, 201511 yr Rev 3 won't fit unless i'm really mistaken, Try Trials and Tribulations, They are great for older bike parts.
August 16, 201511 yr Steve is correct, Rev 3 won't fit, new ones are hard to find, try trials breakers like Richard Allen 01933 314145 Tor Moto breaks bikes or ebay good luck. Edited August 16, 201511 yr by birdy
August 16, 201511 yr It's a shame Beta parts very soon get obsolete on the older models, I think it's a plan to sell newer bikes. For instance, You can not get gaskets for the 2006 Rev 50 anymore among a pile of other things.
September 24, 201510 yr I agree with you steveearle. I love my 1996 Techno but it gets harder to find parts all the time.
December 17, 201510 yr I've just got hold of a spare rear brake lever & I'm hanging onto it as they appear to be as rare as rocking horse ****! Reason I wanted a spare is because I want to try to straighten my original as it has been bent and is against the chain, anyone had any success in doing this without breaking the lever?
December 18, 201510 yr Heat it before bending and be careful. I've been able to bend my '98 lever back. Also, it's possible to bend back the alloy subframe fender members with heat ( bent and broken them too).
