i originally wanted to get a different lever, but when i asked my local park owner what he suggested he said to try an odyssey monolever or a dirty harry.i went with monolever small, and it has helped increase the quality of my braking efficiency. people dont think that the lever has much to do with it, but they are completely wrong. i have had my monolever for several months, and it has taken abuse lots of times that just took one time to destroy my last lever. i say that it is worth the 20 or so dollars to get it.

the small is pretty comparible to the feel of primo lever.

I just looked in danscomp, they are only $15.99 and come in 3 sizes! It also comes with some extra brass bushings and a replacement clamp to prevent stripping!

yes that is quite true, but you also forget the cost of shipping and handling... ive put my lever through so much abuse... just the other day, i fell, my bike flipped over, bounced up and right onto the lever, and the lever didnt break let alone even move!!!!

get the small one, it probably weighs like 5 grams less. Making it easier to hop higher!!!!

note: this is sarcasm, and I know if I didnt write this note people wouldnt understand that.

well, i know that's sarcastic, but i couldn't bunny hop as high as i do on my 25 pound bike if my bike was 40 pounds.

trigger- one or two fingers, has a little part for just one and extention for more, small- two fingers, nice and small only room for two, medium- two fingers, quite large

ps... dans sucks why is that?? i use them and it is fine. i think that their site is one of the easiest to find your way around. it has a catalouge and some great deals.

dans does suck, find a local shop to buy stuff from, i buy stuff from Mark Hilson, and he can get me most things for the price you pay for it in dans... well plus tax, which is usually cheaper than shipping, unless you buy 1000$ of stuff...

my local bike shop orders things we want and sells it to us retail price.
