Default New levers

So who here are using Pazzo Shorty brake and clutch levers? I found a good deal on a set and want to get some. Any issues with them? How were they to install?

I've got them myself, very little issue. My full opinion, of course, can be found here....

I just put a set on my F4. Due to the weather I have not had a chance to use them yet. Very easy to install.

Levers are one of the cheapest, quickest upgrades that can be done.

They look great, too. I've been eyeballing a couple here and there. Just waiting for the right deal to come along. I'm just not sure if I like the shorties. I kinds like how that big 'ol lever is there but I dunno...

I think the shortys are best for my riding style. I only use two fingers on the clutch and one on the brake. If Im shifting alot or at a stop the clutch lever hits my ring finger and starts to bruise my finger after a long ride.

I just installed a set of shorty brake/clutch levers and I have had a couple of chances to ride with them due to our mostly cold weather here, and I do like the way they feel. I only use one or two fingers on the brake and clutch as well and they feel a lot more comfortable to me than the stock levers did. The quick adjustability is also nice because to can flick the little adjusters while you are riding and you don't have to stop to adjust them like the stock ones. I've also got a lot of complimentson them afteronly a couple rides with them installed.I ordered mine off of eBay for $160 shipped, so if you found a good deal on them I'd jump on it, I think you'll like them once you try them!

i installed a set also and i went with the split setup...one shorty one long...i have the shorty on the brake side and the full length clutch...i was concerned about this decision for awhile, if it would look weird, etc....but it looks awesome and feels great....i don't think i would have as good a clutch control with a shorty clutch....

i also read online that quite a few GP'rs use that setup specifically because the long throw clutch gives you a better feel....that being said, there are also a lot that run dual-shorties...

Great mod. Takes 10 minutes to change them over.

I have 2 short levers and find them fantastic.... one finger braking etc. I have shovels for hands but have no problems using the short levers.

Go get 'em!
