Title: Straigtening Pre-Bents.
Post by: beard1973 on July 21, 2010, 02:12 PM

I have a set of NOS pre-bent levers that I would like to straighten...

Anyone done this? They are Dia Compe Levers and I really dont want ruin them...

Are they gonna snap being Alloy? I don't fancy heating them up for fear of stripping the annodising.

Help me....

In that case...

Anyone got a set of Straight DC Levers in GOLD (NOS) that they want to swap for a set of Pre-Bents (NOS)?
