    My grandson has a hard time pulling the clutch in on his suzuki DS80. I got him one of those EX pull setups for his clutch. Has anyone ever thought of putting a ez pull setup on the drum front brakes for more stopping pressure at the shoes.? The ex pull is a mechanical advantage using the lever system. Any thoughts?

    It will just Mush the mushy cable even further . Or give the brake even less feel and still be crap .
    If you need to change the mechanical ratio then there's plenty of room to lengthen the lever at the hub or buy a brake lever with a different ratio .
    The same as everyone does with the clutch instead of buying a silly adaptor

    He’s only 7yo. He just moved up from a jr50 to the ds80 he’s having a hard time pulling the clutch lever in. I’ll checkout the hydraulic system thanks.

    A friend fitted one to his Suzuki, it made a near unusable clutch very light, two fingers instead of two hands!
