When I got the CRG's they were the only ones available. I'd buy Pazzos now if I had the choice. They're just as nice.

I have a set of MEKs. Courtesy of the slow boat from China (germany by proxy) Nothing like waiting 3 months for levers.

The regular whopper probably has enough saturated fat for a whole week, so no thank you.

I just know the rules, I did not make them
But the pegs are bigger than even the ball end of the levers, the feeler is smaller though. And the corner where it meets the windscreen would only be a factor if they seperated from one another.

So wait...what makes that look better?

Just looks broken.

I don't get how less leverage on your brakes is better. I have to rebuild my front brake master cylinder today...and how I found out was when I squeezed my lever (in towards the bike with 2 fingers) my bike did not stop. I had to shift my fingers to the end of the lever to get my brakes to work.

Not really sure what would have happened if I did not have more lever there.
