I was really thinking more of stress fatigue and fracturing over time which "could" result in a sudden break. You've got to remember that (although cosmetically sh!tty) the OE levers will have been tested, and properly, Chinese levers most certainly won't have been! My brother owns a Skyteam franchise in Harrogate and honestly some of the metalwork is laughable, he has to spend many an hour straightening things out during PDI including replacing levers with Honda items! But, like I said, its just my opinion based on the evidence.

By the way - hello and welcome to the forum!
