We use the levers in a product design for actuating levers on a hydraulic lift.

Converted an old Trek 1500 to a single speed commuter with upright bar. Purchased these due to the low price. Very happy with the function and braking performance. Good value.

Dropped my bike and bent one lever. I tried to bend them back and in that they are aluminum, they broke. So I replaced with same levers. All is good.

Ordered Avid FR5 levers for a inexpensive conversion of a road bike to commuter with straight bars. Couldn't make the original levers work with the Weinmann center-pull and did't want to spend much. This worked well. Delivery was perfect.

These were put on my sons bike, which takes quite a bit of abuse. For the price, we can change them often.
