    Anybody tried these?


    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-297451415.htm

    Cheap and nasty... cheap and really nasty... or just cheap? Look like knock offs of knock offs but how could they cock up a lever?

    Cheers for that link. Bookmarked for bling. I wasn't after shorties but they seemed cheap enough to give a go... well not really otherwise I would have bought some

    They look very much like some I got off evilbay, the quality seems decent enough and I can't break 'em so they can't be all bad. (unlike some others I've had over the years...)

    I'm looking at them aswell (if they can supply for the bike i want). I reckon for the spot they cost who cares?

    No risk to dangerous function as hardly change if falling and are remarkedly beautiful for looking.

    Man looks ok for selling because customers not making trouble and talking bad from experiencing service.

    Should do real clutch lever so braking without all hand can be given to me. Maybe these real, I not know. If someone have and do good news examination I can follow after or bring more money for foreign lever to be best performing.

    Oh in soooooooooooo many ways. Metalurgy (incl heat treatment), proper design (sufficient metal in the important places, no stress raisers etc), the list goes on!

    But. Far be it from me to be boring.

    The volumes of production have got so good on the US and European brands such as Titax and Pazzo that you can now have your cake and eat it without any safety risks.

    You can purchase Titax and Pazzo for under $300 a set in New Zealand and get a full manufacturers warranty and local support from reputable companies such as us and Biggles racing.

    Been using them for about 5 months now I get them through a personal sponsor of myne havent had any problems, Bang for buck they are good they fit they have fancy adjusters they are a decent finish of course they arn not pazzo's etc but for the price you pay they are not that bad.

    People can diss regardthem all they like I may only be 20 but have been in the motorcycle industry for a while now and have some very good contacts I can tell you that Joe average goes in to Mototrcycle shop buys a OEM or aftermarket brake lever in standered design some of those are shit, but at 10 dollars what do you expect these RRP are around 100 dollars I dont pay that but can tell you that for the money I payed I expect them not to be the 100% pure bling but for what I want they are good depends how you look at it.

    I know someone else who I have just scored a set for because they like myne

    so in short yes they are good and as a trained mechanic I can tell you they fitted perfectly ok they dont have bearings in them like pazzos do but the actual fit itself is fine

    Best place to get them is from a bike shop tho through and get the ones that come from White's

    These trademe ones could be a slightly differnt animal again
