Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...#ht_754wt_1139
I was wondering how they compare to the OEM ones and if the black will worn away easily. |

Re: Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
I had some similar and wasn't massively impressed with the black finish, looked a bit thin in places.
Bit the bullet in the end and went for a set of pazzos, worth every penny!

Re: Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
At £7.50 each I somehow doubt they've been lavish with the coating
Or the quality material...

There are a few other black models which look dodgy in the pictures and somehow I assumed you were referring to them. |

Re: Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
to be fair for that price, you could afford to replace them every 6 months if you wanted.

Re: Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
I bought some OEM style black ones for my Ducati, looks like similar way of coating them.
They are okay except my clutch lever has worn through the black in places, brake side is still black.

Re: Anyone tried black levers from eBay?
i had them. they are not anodised they are powder coated. they were fine for the price though (they never snapped). ooohhhh and the seller is not in Edinburgh he is in the states. things go missing in the post and he does not reply to emails so you pays your money you takes your chance.
