Product description
Avid FR5 Brake Lever set silver (silver)
The squeeze of our levers is what dreams are made of (and you know which dreams we're talking about). Most of our levers can be swapped to be run either front or rear, which is convenient if you like to your brakes reversed, and a Godsend if you bust a lever in the middle of the woods. Avid levers are easy to install, simple to set up, and a pleasure to pull.
Grip width adjustment
If you can control your ride with just one finger, it’s extremely important to adjust the brake handles exactly to the unique shape of your hands. This is exactly why all Avid brake levers have a grip width adjustment.
Bend Zone
Avid knows that falls can occur and has therefore developed the Bend Zone. In a violent collision, where a conventional brake lever would fail, the Bend Zone ensures that the brake lever bends and the grip body is spared major damage. So not only can you prevent the worst without having to brake like Fred Feuerstein, you don't even need a new grip body.
