Post by hidepenny »

What levers are you talking about? Some are just for looks, some offer more adjustability, some are cheap crap that are thrown on to replace crash damaged OEM.

I realised that, but what I'm talking about is the type you want to get. You can get everything from "carbon look" or anodised levers that won't do more than look a bit different, to Brembo master cylinders or Pazzo levers that have some potential performance or adjustability benefits. Big range in price and bling factor.

I have the CRG bars on my bike and they are fantastic. Worth about $300 or so for the pair, so not cheap but they go great.

They were on my bike when I got them though so I don;t know if I would actually spend that much on them if I was looking at levers!!
