I just wanted to upgrade the brake levers that came on my Giant Yukon. These really look good and are very smooth feeling when the brakes are applied. I found for the price that these can't be beat.

I couldn't be happier with these brake levers. Didn't cost much but has really stood up to my abuse. I ride a Raleigh Ram 2.0 full suspension MTB and I jump it more than anything. It's also been down some gnarly trails, and has taken some mean spills. On one crash, the lever bent (just a little), but on a similar crash before, it completely broke my old lever! (don't remember the brand off hand) They have 4 levels of adjustment and feel really solid. I recommend this lever!

Great, quick shipping, but couldn't help but laugh as I set to install these brake levers. I was sent two left side levers, not one of each. Either that or Avid's low lower levers are only made one way. I have another set of Avid levers and when installed the adjustment bolts are BOTH on top, for this build one will be on top and the other underneath. Not a huge deal, but is when everything else I do is all about the details. Disappointing, but not so much as to pay for more shipping. Otherwise, nice product.
