The handbrake being in the way of your arm is one of the quirks of Atom ownership - not only do you bang your elbow on it, but it makes is incredibly hard to use it when you are in traffic on a hill. I don't think there is an easy way to move it, but I have noticed that in the US they do have a upholstery cover that goes over it so I suppose it doesn't hurt quite so much when you catch your elbow. It isn't available from the UK factory, so if you are in Europe, you could always have one made by an upholsterer? Just a thought.
