Where can I buy a mountain bike quick-release lever for the front wheel?

Question by June: Where can I buy a mountain bike quick-release lever for the front wheel?
I have a Mongoose mountain bike and the quick release lever came out and the tire came off and I crashed. The bike is OK, I have a slight crack to the skull, but I cannot find a replacement for the quick release lever. Can I order one on-line?

Schwinn Aluminum Frame Pump

  • Dual nozzle can inflate either Presta/Schrader valves
  • Light alloy pump with ergonmoic "T" handle makes inflating easy
  • Includes frame mounting bracket with velcro strap easily mounts to water bottle bosses
  • Max 100 psi

Featuring the Schwinn brand Americans have trusted for over one hundred years this pump is small enough to go with you anywhere. Bicycle tires and tubes require a fixed pressure per square inch (PSI) to function safely and at best performance. Home bicycle pumps allow riders to maintain this conveniently without costly or lengthy trips to the nearest service station. When mounted on a bicycle or stored in a glove compartment fear of being stranded due to low pressure becomes a thing of the past. PTI Sports products are designed with safety as the first and foremost concern and are constructed of high quality parts and materials to prevent degradation over time. Thoroughly tested, our products last through years of use before they are recommended for replacement, ensuring safe cycling for years to come.

  1. If you purchased the bike from a dept store take it back and they will at the very least give you a new quick release lever. Next….take the whole rig to your local bike shop and have them show you proper installation.
    All of the bike shops I’ve worked in always cooperated with new customers and realized the potential for new and repeat business by educating and assisting people who need it.
    Returning the bike to the place of purchase and making them liable is common practice for any purchase. The mechanics at the bike shop will probably find many other things wrong with the bike and will make money fixing them. The dept store will offer to replace or refund, in which case, I would accept a refund and buy a bike from the local shop. Just beware rabid idealists who don’t see the big picture and just may refuse your business.

  2. Of course you can buy online, any good online store has all kinds of parts – but do the repair yourself.
