Good basic levers

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

Just what I wanted

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.

Thank you for your feedback.

They work, but have a lower quality feel.

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

Thank you for your feedback.

Replaced road bars on old road bike with flat bars, these levers were easy install and work great

I decided to rebuild and old Raligh Capri and add flat bars, levers and cables. Not wanting to spend too much money I bought these levers and have been very satisfed with them. Easy to install, good quality for the price and they look good.

These brake levers work great for our application.

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

Thank you for your feedback.

Good value

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.
