MZS levers, any good?
The MT has very old fashioned looking levers on so I fancied a more modern looking set. These came up and look the part...

Re: MZS levers, any good?
They are in the same price range as Ali Express/ebay jobs. I suppose it depends how much of a risk you want to endure on essential bike controls.
Having said that,I had a set of £30 Chinese levers on my bike for a while and they worked/looked fine. There was a bit of play which became worse over a short time,so I eventually bought a set of ASV.
In retrospect,unless I was changing the levers for something of proven quality,I'd just keep the stock levers.

Re: MZS levers, any good?
I've had no problems with Chinese Aliexpress/Banggood levers, as long as you go for the full length jobbies. I tried a set of stubbies and initially liked them, but later realised they were actually worse in every way.
