Ali C Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 looks cool, I like split clamps...a lot! lever looks comfy and has sealed bearings....BUT!! it doesnt apear to have any form of spead dial feature, thats enough to keep me on avid levers.

Ali C Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 the lever blades with a ridge feel nicer for one finger braking than the ones without it, who says you have to use two fingers? They will feel simular to RB lever blades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobinJI Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 Vee lever looks sweet, although I'm not sure how well it will work. The designs not the best mechanicaly, especialy if you like the biting point quite earlie.People keep saying 'If I hade a Vee break,' I know it says Vee break lever, But it would work an a BB7 too.Oh yeah, and they don't have an HS33 lever on the site atall, that ones for magura discs.
