I've been thinking about buying similar levers for my bike. The only thing holding me back is the risk of buying from Hong Kong. I'm a little uneasy buying from a place like that, even though I have no real reason why. My bro has had success buying things from a far and it looks like others have had success as well.

Let us know how long it takes for shipping or if you have any problems.

Thanks!

I got this in the silver. I have noticed with the Levers the hong kong anodizing fades fast. I would by aluminum and get it powder coated.

It usually takes about 2 weeks to get your item. I have purchased the levers, gas cap and foot pegs all from hong kong. I have been extremely satisfied with all of them. No problems what so ever.

I got a pair of black ano. levers with red adjusters ordered from the2wheels on ebay today. I'll report back when they show up. I'll be pretty stoked if they only take 2 weeks to get here.

Wow, K I finally got these levers (about 2 weeks ago) and had time to install. I think these levers are great. They were easy to put on and seem to be of high quality.

If you are looking to get them for this season your almost out of time! It took 2 months for me to get mine...it was worth the wait- and the snow by me is just finally gone anyway.

BTW the shorties are perfect length, I have big hands and they are no problem at all.

I've got the shorty black w/ red adjusters on my f4i and I'm pretty happy with them. No slope and perfect fit.
Got them on the bike in 8 days, the seller filled out the customs papers and declared as replacement/fixed part so it did not stopped for taxing when it got here.

I just have one complaint but that's due to the way I shift, not the levers itself. I shift pretty fast and with a strong pull so the rounded end of the lever hits me right in my interphalangeal joint and in the end of the day it's pretty painfull.

Quality wise, they're worth it.

Loosen the clutch cable, remove the screw, pull old lever out and put the new one in, then install screw and cable. For the brake side you simple remove the screw and lever and then put the new lever in and replace the screw.
