Same goes for anyone else that finds this helpful. I'd appreciate the feed back good or bad.

If the lever is not broken and the teeth still have their points and engage well with the matching teeth on the fixed lever bracket it should be repairable. It is fiddly to get all the parts lined up and assembled most likely you've got the brake cable wedged. If you do need a brake lever Bugaboo won't help they only sell the whole chassis. If you have the older wing-nut white lever model you will get back some of the $400 new chassis cost in better resale value. Other wise check out eBay for old chassis with other problems but good brake parts. Here's my link about Bugaboo brakes www.fixya.com/support/r7805449-fix_bugaboo_brake

Bugaboo are not good when it comes to individual parts and force you to buy a whole new chassis. You will recover some of this in a better resale value. There is a Bugaboo repair shop in Australia called www.karlisles.com.au that sells second hand parts you could email them. A plastic welder could fix it but it won;t look to pretty.

Bugaboo don't sell parts as such but they sell the chassis. It will coat you around a third of the price of a new Bugaboo. The new Red brake lever chassis has the lever extension handle locks instead of the wing-nuts and rocker style buttons for the handle release. Your old frame will be quite sort after on eBay. I like the rocker handle release and the extension levers are quick to use and look better but I must warn you the old wing-nut system held the handle better and if you bump down a lot of stairs the new lever system is more prone to slipping,

Hi,

I think that it is VERY unlikely that you have a fake, it just sounds like you have a variation. On the stroller chassis, there will be a serial number on a clear sticker. Contact www.bugaboo.com who will verify the situation for you.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Based on what you have described, it sounds like the silver domed cover (where the handle meets the bottom of the chassis) may be damaged, this may mean a new chassis is required.
I would suggest that you contact your retailer for repair advice (if this is still within the warranty period) or contact Bugaboo directly on the website link below:

Please note that you will need to have your chassis serial number to hand.

I hope this helps.

try www.buggypitstop.co.uk they go repairs and sell second hand

Hi,

The best advice that I can give is to contat Bugaboo (www.bugaboo.com) who will be able to advise on the cost of a replacement chassis. Alternatively, you can purchase these from eBay most of the time.

I hoep this helps.
