You might be able to find a brake on eBay, or if someone on here has a broken chassis you could take one off that and put it on yours? It was a bit of a faf but I managed it , perhaps just take a picture of how it's supposed to look before you take everything apart.

I've heard of people having these repaired at cycle shops. The brake system on Cameleon is similar to bicycle brakes. Explain to the shop that it's not under warrenty, otherwise they won't want to touch it for fear of invalidating your warrenty.


Also, ring Bugaboo distributors (even though you didn't buy yours new) and ask about repairs. You'd obviously have to pay for the repair, but there shouldn't be any reason for them to refuse you the repair service.

I took mine to a bike shop but the brake has a round bit on the end ( both ends, from memory) and a bike brake has the round bit on one end only.

They did say they would fit it for me if I could get my hands on a bugaboo brake though.

Lots of them break at the place where the chassis folds, rather than the brake, so you might be lucky if you appeal on here or check eBay gumtree Craig's list preloved etc...

This happened to me. I bought a new brake through Buggy Pit Stop. Mothercare in Lewisham said they can order one in and fit it too (I just called them in advance to check the bloke who worked there who could fit it was there that day). I actually ended up getting it fitted by Buggy Pit Stop in St Albans as co-incidentally I was going there to see a friend anyway.

Last week the brake was broken and my husband bought a new brake in ebay and it was so easy to change. He found many brake's sellers and he bought to the cheaper one. I leave the link where he bought it if you can help.

    • Sue My point being that if you experience something that could potentially be sorted by a GP, you might feel it necessary to go to A&E, which would be clogged up due to the doctors strike.  Just my opinion, but I don't really see that its necessary to close a surgery for half a day for staff training.  
    • A huge shout-out to Andy! He’s helped us several times now and is an absolute gem. He doesn't just do the easy jobs; he finds solutions to the difficult, non-obvious problems that others might miss. He is very hard working, incredibly friendly, great with pets, and always leaves the place better than he found it. 10/10! 
    • Here to add my voice to those praising Temi. She just painted my dilapidated home office in ED and did a fantastic job in just two days in a much lighter colour, including woodwork, damp blocker and filling holes. She's efficient, on time and I barely heard a peep out of her; she just got on with the job. I recommend her wholeheartedly. 
    • The residents & families of the estate are getting parking fines,  out of the blue , the residents parking system waa changed from Southern to Sippi with cameras put up in the car park and people issued with fines entering the estate for more then 10 minutes , families can no longer pick up or drop off family due to a new 10 minute wait fine. Residents are appealing with Sippi and Southern as there was no letters to consult of a parking change,  new waiting times or fines, delivery drivers are getting fines everyday,  if you get a fine,  appeal it, there is no signage up to say about parking fines or waiting time
