Chinese Brake and Clutch levers

[JD-LincsUK]

Hullooo chaps! (and chapesses   )

I got the bike out for a test ride and some maintenance today (see woeful story of broken ExUp pulley) so I took a few shots in daylight:

From t' seat:



from t' front:



From t' clutch side:



From t' brake side:



Widest brake lever setting (there are 6):



Widest setting, fully applied:



Smallest setting (1), fully applied:



Not much point showing the clutch lever settings - I found that as it was, on setting 1 and 2, put into gear = bike takes off! 3 is dragging. 4, 5 and 6 were okay - but further reach. So the clutch needed a bit of adjusting and testing. I'm happy with it now, even though I still can't use settings 1 and 2.

I do like these, they feel good - the brake is far better than the one I took off - which I found was actually broken at the fitting hole.
