JC: These are super light, Taiwan made, and the tighten bolt head is on the front/upper side, and not on the bottom which will all so often interfere with the shifter thumb levers. Very nice levers.

Sherlocked: Davor hatte ich Shimano-Bremshebel. Aufgrund des guten Preis-Leistungsverhältnis hab ich fast alles von Shimano gekauft.
Probleme bei Shimano:
- schwer zu installieren (ziemliche Fummelei den Bowdenzug in den Bremshebel zu bekommen + eigentlich unmöglich, wenn man den Bowdenzug nicht vom Bremssattel löst)
- Geringer Hebelweg (Bremskraft lässt ohne ständiges nachziehen immer weiter ab. Zudem müssen die Bremsbeläge schon ziemlich nah beirinander stehen, damit die Bremse ordentlich funktioniert. Bei einem leichten Achter schleifen die Bremsscheiben dann ständig)
- Man muss alle Finger zum Bremsen benutzen
Bei den oben angesprochenen Problemen macht Avid alles besser (einfache Installation, größerer Hebelweg und aauch mit 1-3 Fingern nutzbar)
Fazit: Wer aus seiner mechanischen Bremse das maximale rausholen möchte, der braucht diese Bremshebel.

FilmComposer: I got these for a singlespeed project. My brakes are standard calipers, which is not linear pull. These work fine but I don’t have to squeeze hard to get them to work. Not really ideal as the lever is out there but whatever.
The price is incredible for the quality these are. Not racing material, but good enough for cheap solid levers.

JRussell: Used these on a Resto-Mod 1998 Trek. Look and feel great, really good value for the money. These go on my short list of go-to parts for future projects.

Amazon Customer: 5 minutes to install. Strong and effective. Used to replace factory plastic handles. Worth the money.
