Lewis-Trials Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hello, Right i was just wondering what's the difference between Avid Juicy 3 and 5, because i have the old 5's and my mate got the 3's but his lever sticks and stays out, and mind you can click in or out, but i was wondering how i could make mine just stay out or isit different for the two.

Dan6061 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 The Juicy five lever clamp is in 2 pieces, so you don't have to take the grips off to fit it, which is what I wish every lever had!Other than that, and the colour of them, I can't spot any other difference? The Juicy Seven has the TPA adjuster I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis-Trials Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Yeah i know all that i got avid juicy 5, but on the juicy 3 they stick all the way out, but on juicy 5 you can click them in or out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 That's incase you fall, and bash the lever on something. So instead of it snapping the lever blade off, it clicks back instead of snapping it, hopefully! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
