One-finger Brake Levers

<< < (2/4) > >>

Mikku:
Thanks for the replies and link! Didn't know about Brick Lane Bikes. Have you used any of their levers?

Since it's a race bike, I don't use the brakes much but when I do, I need them to work well, to stop me t-boning someone or falling backwards on a failed manual! My current Shimano XLR lever works great but I keep hitting my middle finger on it, hence the idea of switching to a smaller, one-finger jobbie!

Midschoolfool:
Yes mate I bought a pair for my 700c.



I got white because they were the cheapest and because I needed a pair... Brick Lane are the only distro for Paul in the UK. I reckon Paul is actually making their levers tbh. They definitely don't have their own CNC, that's for sure.

I like them better than the Paul I have. Much easier to pull, far more comfy and just as light.

Mikku:
They don't look bad - I like the bend in them - so may have to add them to my list of potential purchases. In the meantime, I've switched out the Shimano that was on the GT (it was on there when I got it and works well, so I left it on there) and replaced it with the gold Promax lever from my Crupi (which I was thinking about putting on the Cult), to see how I get on with that. Will report back after I've ridden it a bit more. :daumenhoch:

Midschoolfool:
I have a pair of gold tektro magnesium I may consider selling.


I'm due a clearout tbh.

Mikku:
Got any pics of those puppies? :daumenhoch:
