Review on LINGQUE Hydraulic Electric Aluminum Mountain by Eugene Cox

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This "FRONT " lever worked well to replace a leaking Zoom/Vsett left brake lever for a REAR scooter

Varla Eagle One = Zero 10X with hydraulic brakes. My Vsett left lever was leaking out of the piston and I couldn't wait to fix the brakes quickly. I have the zoom lever on the right so I would expect the back right to work for zoom or vsett or something. I needed a left lever with brake switch for an electric bike or scooter and this seemed to fit the bill. I didn't want to wait for delivery from China. I ended up moving the electrical switch/sensor from the Vsett lever to this lever, eliminating the need for splicing in the wiring. I adjusted the depth of the switch in the lever so that depressing the lever would disengage the throttle. Too low/firm and the throttle was always off so I backed off a bit to find the right adjustment threshold. pull to push the crushed compression olive out of the OEM lever. I left the Zoom caliper and hose in place and had to tighten the expander nut to get a good enough seal using a reused olive to get an airtight seal. I wasn't able to get the barb out of the hose that came with it. So if you need to cut the hose, you will need a olive barb that matches the inside diameter (ID) of the hydraulic hose. In my setup I only used one lever, so the rest of the parts (hose and caliper) were unnecessary and untested. I also got bike brake mineral oil and a brake bleed kit to finish the job. I am happy about the fast delivery and that I have a working left arm/rear brake again. on the RIGHT side of the axle and on a typical bike the calipers are on the LEFT side of the axle. The Varla Eagle One=Zero 10X Scooter hydraulic calipers have a flex banjo fitting and this caliper has a non-flex straight olive mount so the use of the caliper on the right hand side scooter is unknown and unconfirmed. The included pads look like they would fit Zoom calipers, perhaps with a little filing or sanding on the narrowest of edges.
