Re: LEVER FITTING
10mm spanner and a flat head screwdriver is all the tools needed .
Remove the 10mm nut and unscrew the pivot bolt ,
Remove lever and replace

Re: LEVER FITTING
Easy to do. Just make sure you have the right clearance between the level and piston the the mastery cylinder. About the thickness of a rizzla paper will do. Don't want to be warping any discs now do we?

Re: LEVER FITTING
Only if you wear your monkey helmet when fitting them.
If you don't like them I'll have them. That is off course if you won them

Re: LEVER FITTING
Mine were easy to fit except I had to have the front brakes bled for some reason. I think the piston must have backed out a fraction.
Fitting = easy
Brakes = bitch
Fitting = easy
Brakes = bitch
It may only be my opinion but it's mine!

Black is Soooo this season Chric!
I really like short levers, feels just the same as riding my old crosser & BMX/mountain bike, so it feels pretty natural to me.
I can appreciate you get more leverage with a longer brake lever, but when you've got Chuck Norris hands it's fine![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

I too prefer shorties, they also have an advantage if you happen to drop your bike too as they wont snap or bend. I'd ideally like some ASV levers but can't justify the expense.
