Stark Varg LHRB

[Philip]

I ordered one from Stark Future. Here it is!



I paid $301.90 plus $39 shipping in May. Today the price is $278.90 plus shipping.

You can use this brake on the Alta too. Just replace the Varg's Bremo bracket with the Alta's Brembo bracket. The Varg uses a 25mm rear axle and the Alta uses a 20mm axle.

It comes filled and bled. Bolt on and ride! Just route the hose outside the frame, or else you will need to re-bleed it.

Have fun!

That sounds like a good option. Quite a but cheaper then the rekluse as well

Philip - do those units have any numbers on them?

Nice cheaper than the Ox brake, not sure which one I want now =/

Have you tried it out yet? How do you like it?

Here are the numbers. I haven't installed it on anything yet. It will probably go on the Varg (hopefully next month).

Great photos, thanks! These have slightly different numbers from the demo I saw last year - I think it's a 10mm master cylinder & 26mm caliper. My Alta now has a 12/26 foot-brake setup/sintered pads & works well, so this 10/26 might give similar braking power by hand, depending on pads (I think these may be sintered as well).

@Philip Curious why you didn't just order the bike with LHRB from the factory? Or did you order this because you ordered your bike with foot brake lever and wanted to try out both and then decide which you prefer?

I just went ahead and order LHRB from the start since I'm already used to that on Surron(s), MTB(s), eMTB, and ATV, so figured I'd stick with that trend for the Varg. Interesting that riding our ICE dirtbikes with foot brakes has become the oddball setup in our household. Ha.

I like to keep my foot brake too. I have both brakes on my Altas, so I will have the same setup on the Varg.

Nice. I've heard others mention they want the rear brake to be actuated by both a LH lever and foot lever and that there were various ways to tie the two together and they've done that one their other bikes. Will be interesting to hear and see how every accomplishes with both home-made kits and what retail kits come out. How did you tie the two together on your Alta?

DIY LHRB that retains the foot brake

I think I should re-post the DIY LHRB recipe, which is buried on Page 6 of The Alta Factory LHRB thread. Here is the recipe: 1) Brembo clutch 9mm master cylinder KTM P/N 79202030044 from the 2017 KTM SX-F 250/350 2) Clutch hose KTM P/N 60032063100 from the 2014+ KTM Adventure (must straighten...

Also, the Rekluse kit keeps both (hand & foot) levers operational
