Tektro e-bike brake wire extension

[David Paisley]

I have Tektro hydraulic e-bike brakes with the motor cut-off switch built into the handles. The wires connecting the brake handle to the computer controller are too short as I want to change out the handlebar.Any ideas where to get a short extension wire, 2 pin male/female. 6 inches, or 10 cm would do. The bike is the Magnum Navigator with a C7 computer if that helps.

The problem with Alibaba is that I do not know what to look for. The wires are not the same as Julet. Also Das Kit is a German company. Das Kit does not respond to requests. I have requests out to other bike companies that carry the Das Kit computer/display. Ig is a poor design by Magnum in that the wires do not allow for any adjustment or extension. The throttle wire is a Julet and I was able to get an extension from Bolton Bikes.

Try LunaCycle.com they will probably solve your issue

If I recall these are called HIGO, come in various colors corresponding to how many pins in each cable

Strange, but most vendors on ebay/amazon carry male/male or female/female. What good is that? Here's a 2 pin male/female on Aliexpress. Julet and Higo differ, but should work, except for being 700mm (27 inches) long. You're going to want to shorten it, and if you do that, you can just buy the individual connectors on ebay with none of the aliexpress hassle.

The link you provided does not show what OP was looking for..

We must be on different web browsers. I can click on 2pin M/F and get this.

Hmm, so far I only found this one with locking mechanism

This is the closest one I have seen.

I bought this one but if you look closely, the configuration is different. On mine, there is a half moon below the pins

Call Luna they will help, great customer service

That's not the same one.

The OP has different 2 pin connector, they're not compatible.

OK. I didn't look at the picture. Didn't think they were different. I've had two ebikes with Tektro disk brake levers, and they use the two pin Julet/Higo,

You are lucky they do. Julet/Higo are standard. And easy to get. I did order the one from Hilleater as it looks life I can adapt that one. I do have another work around to make it work the way I want. It requires moving the display closer to the right motor cutoff and just disconnect the left. I use both brake levers at the same time, so one cutoff will work.

Are there any other markings on the connectors? I see the arrows. I found a somewhat obscure Cusmade connector with the imprint information on a troublesome connector.
