I've got a rattling Apex left hand brake lever (Sonder Camino Apex 1x11 set-up). It's recently started rattling like crazy when on anything other than smooth tarmac.
Does anyone have a link to any maintenance guide for them? Or any ideas on how to stop it?
thanks

Do you not ride with your finger on the lever all the time?
I usually have my hands on the hoods as it's got flared drops. It still rattles.
anyone got any ideas?
I had the same issue with Apex, coincidentally on the same bike. If you pull the lever and look down the gap at the top, you'll see the hinge and there's a washer either side - that's the rattling. I tried injecting grease around them which cured the problem temporarily, but it came back. It annoyed me so much that I forked out for a new lever.
I had this Issue with my shimano brakes. Turned out to be the lever reach. As it was dialed in a bit it gave it some slack. Making it full reach gave it nowhere to move to and stopped the rattle.
thanks, I'll check over the weekend
