Default Need help choosing Adjustable levers

Hey guys so im still noobish I just got back on my bike since last year in which i got my bike and license right before winter hit. sooo still getting in set time. My friend told me my brake lever is way too far for my tiny girl hands, which i totally agree, so Now the fun part choosing new ones but what are your thoughts on going cheap from china or putting out the extra 90$ for the real deal?

Its pretty much pazzo vs whatever they send me from china

thanks guys!!!!!

Thumbs up Levers are good

Hi,

Not had any problems with the chinese levers I have had fitted. 3 years on the cbr1000f, 6 months on the Zed and cbr600f. First mod I bought for the blade. I just don't buy the cheapest - around £20-25

Same here, paid 18 EUR for my red adjustable shorty china ebay levers, haven't had one problem. Just properly lube the straight part of the pivot bolt when you install them and make sure there's a nylock nut to secure the bolt or put threadlock in the threads. I'm told the electroplating in colored ones fade over time in the sun but think that's more like a FL/Cali problem, mine still look excactly like fresh off the box.

About the pricing, 99% of the levers are the exact same product, same pic and all just different price so just find a trusted seller with good rating and order away.
