BMX Brake Levers

BMX Brake Levers Keep You in Control

Often referred to as BMX brake handles, these levers are the small components on your handlebars that play a crucial role in your braking system. When pressed, the lever pulls a cable that activates the brakes, allowing you to decelerate or come to a halt. Most brake levers for BMX bikes are crafted from aluminium, ensuring a lightweight and non-rusting product.

Fitting a new lever can significantly affect your braking experience, offering enhanced power and control. Additionally, many riders choose to update their brake levers to personalise the appearance of their bars.

It's essential to ensure new levers are compatible with your current braking system and know which side of the handlebar they are designed to fit.
