On Sunday's watershed ride, Derek crashed and broke his right hand brake lever off (which lead to another crash later), so I am looking for a nice set of brake levers for him (or just the right side) to put him back on the trail. The brakes/levers he has are Avid single digits (V brake - linear pull) and I would like to get another set of avids, so I dont end up at performance buying tektro levers or something like that.

We switched to Hydro brakes right off, so these are brand new. I'll take a look tonight to see exactly which ones they are.

That would be way cool. Are you going on the Gambrill ride tomorrow night?

DaveG walked up to me last night at the Gambrill nite ride and placed a brand new set of Avid Fr5's in my hand, gratis! You are most generous, I thank you.
