Default Any thoughts on these levers?

If I end up getting my bike repaired, I'm thinking of replacing the levers. These look like they'll go straight on, any thoughts on them/how do they compare with other aftermarket levers?

I have some vague recollection that someone on here got them and couldn't see how to fit the clutch lever. Whether this was down to some deficiency in the kit/their mechanical abilities, I don't know.

On a related note, I'd be reluctant to buy anything from anyone who thinks they can circumvent their legal obligations on distance selling items described as new by putting, "All sales are final, item is sold "AS-IS". No warranty of any kind is granted to the buyer. User assumes all risks and costs associated with the use of these products." in their listing. They're not likely to offer particularly good after sales support if you have a query/need to return something.

I'm sure I remember a fitting issue with these too.

They also say

"After clicking the "Buy It Now" button, DO NOT USE EBAY CHECKOUT!!! "

Why would that be do you think......

this is an item that is paramount in your safety !..

you dnt want either lever to become unattached or snap in your hand at a critical moment. !!!

personally i wouldnt buy them from there because there abroad, i dont like buying abroad because can take ages to arrive plus you can get stung for import duty, this can double the price of the levers and would end up being cheaper buying them here from a shop

...and it's far harder/more expensive to turn up on their doorstep if you really have a grievance with them.
