Awesome levers!

Got rid of some old LX shifter/brake lever combo on my mnt spare bike. I had some XT shifters and needed a new set of levers. I'm running BB7 disc brakes in the front with v-brakes in the back, these were perfect, much better than the shifter/lever combo I had. What I like the most is that it has a spring that retains the lever in its place after you press it, allowing it to set up the shift cable tension properly.

Perfect replacements

I have a cheap Walmart Schwinn that came with plastic brake handles. I rebuilt everything on the bike and the aluminum replacements afte perfect! Fits great. Feels great.
