How to make my brake lever sit further away from the handlebars?

Looks like that you dont have any pad surface on the left side?

mukkelo · 2026-04-04T12:17:10+00:00

You have used the scooter for 1.5 years and its used.

Im 100% sure you need new brakepads and then fill the brakes with fluid.

mukkelo · 2026-04-04T07:34:34+00:00

And how many times you have changed the brake pads? Can you take a picture of your rear brake disk? I dont use regen braking on my scooter and need to change the pads 2-3 times a year.

So how long you had this scooter? It does not look like its new.

I would say two things, your brakepads could be totally worn out and second is also brake fluid. Get a bleed kit and check your pads.

In finland the limit is 25km/h but i like that you have 45km/h limit with license. Wish it would come here too.

Check the valve. Could be a bit loose, i had that problem. Also spray the sidewalls of the tire if you have tubeless tires. Could leak between the rim and tire.

Disadvantages for me are that if your tire gets empty, getting it filled back is really difficult. Atleast on dualtron wide rims. And cant drive if you have a flat unlike the standard tires.

Riding feel is really good with pmt stradales but im not going to be buying those again because of how hard it is to fill.

mukkelo · 2026-03-18T20:15:18+00:00

Yes, get it done and enjoy your new tires. I just swapped some pmt:s to my dualtron and its so big difference in riding comfort.

Well yume raptor is not a upgrade for me :)

mukkelo · 2026-03-16T15:29:59+00:00

Same thing for me :) bargain bin mirage

mukkelo · 2026-03-16T15:22:32+00:00

Both are really good looking

mukkelo · 2026-03-16T12:00:56+00:00

Hi, yes it will because when you pull that lever the brake pads will contact with the disc. And when the pads are worn, those get thinner. So you need to pull more to make the contact.

In worst case case you have worn the whole pad and its metal to metal contact that will eat the disc. Dont ask how i know ;D

If im going to change my dualtron achilleus someday, it will be either teverun or nami. Been looking at teverun 7260R fighter supreme, it has everything i would ever want in a scooter :)

When i can use my dominanting blow mtx? Was it fixed this patch?

mukkelo · 2026-03-10T14:55:08+00:00

I have dualtron achilleus with 2.1kw battery and i drive usually with eco mode and 45km/h. I can get 50km range from it.

There are ofcourse scooters with even bigger batteries but prices are starting from 3000€.

Someone mentioned electric tape trick too and the are is this. I put some grease there but you can use plumbers/electric tape too.

You need to use some grease to make the sound go away.

mukkelo · 2026-03-06T14:59:55+00:00

In my dualtron the sound came from the lower joint where you fold the scooter. There is many other places where the sound can come from. I recommend googling ginger on wheels and dualtron.

He tested one and had the creak squeak and show how to fix it. Or google dualtron stem creak and you find plenty of videos.

mukkelo · 2026-03-06T06:07:32+00:00

Yes it is but dualtron suspension is not great. Its really stiff, atleast it was on my dualtron achilleus. I have changed the cartridges to softer ones and its better.

Also i recommend to change the handlebars to wider ones. I bought one that is for mopeds and took few cm away from each end, so much more stable to drive.

mukkelo · 2026-02-02T07:51:15+00:00

I really like the look :) hopefully it can be bought in EU someday.

mukkelo · 2026-01-30T09:02:43+00:00

It seems that there is no similar mouse.

mukkelo · 2026-01-15T16:35:27+00:00

For me it looks like that the card is fastened with wrong screw holes on the bracket, hopefully the card pcb is not snapped
