Please does anyone have an M type lever I could buy or swap for another item(s)?

The Minor one is very hard to reach on an M ! Not good for my neck!!

Thanks.

Wasn't the M handbrake lever the same as the Minor, but bent into a z-shape? Would it be possible to bend a standard OHC Minor handbrake lever using heat?

Thank you Ian.

The local blacksmith has made an excellent job of bending a standard minor lever to the required shape.
