the addict Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 (edited) Bought a pair today after a mate raved about them last week, really easy to sort out the exact position for bite on the clutch and front brake. Even adjust them on the move, saves messing about with a spanner and allen key to find it still isnt in the correct position. Sorry if this is old news but first time I ve seen them, About 8 quid from BVM Edited October 21, 2006 by Betarev3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Yep they are great had a pair myself but down too one now! god only knows how I bent that finally swapped them over today so got the quick adjustment on the brake rather than clutch, as recently been messing with the brake a lot more than clutch. Have had a thought just though.... instead of paying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drhud Posted October 21, 2006 Report Share Posted October 21, 2006 Barry, if you want to save money, heres what I did.. I put 2 nuts (you should have 2 from the ones you took off, I got mine from the spare levers I carry) on the end of the existing adjuster screw, tightened them against each other and then put a spring from my mountain bike skewer between the nuts and the lever. Saved me $15 !! and they work great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Oooh just come across a new part of the trialcast site Accessories and it looks like they are branching out a little so for those of you that aren`t as much of a cheapskate as me and would like a nice bit of bling (useful bling i`ll add) I`d say Trialcast has been one of the best companys i`ve dealt with go forth and buy great christmas idea too?

mad4it Posted October 31, 2006 Report Share Posted October 31, 2006 Are these ajusters not supposed to screw into the lever housing as opposed to into the actual lever themselves being only made from alloy they must be likely to break !

Yes i bought some levers off them for my 06 beta they were of quite poor finish and no bushes supplied with them. fitted some new bushes in them which were loose , holes were to big in the levers and caused them to be very sloppy and rattle about.

They screw into the lever and are there for quick easy adjustments, admitadly i`ve bent one but too do this I first had too snap my lever smash my twist grip too pieces and bend my bars Yes i bought some levers off them for my 06 beta they were of quite poorfinish and no bushes supplied with them. fitted some new bushes in them which were loose , holes were to big in the levers and caused them to be very sloppy and rattle about. Shame i`ve always had great stuff from them pegs levers etc although I don`t have an 06 so can`t speak for the `new` style levers? r2w has some but he`s too much of a wuss too need to use them yet!
