And I'd expect IT to make tea!!

The words "tyre lever" & "aluminium" do not belong in the same sentence.
Look how short they are as well - any longer and they'll snap I'll wager.
Proper tools require proper metal - STEEL.
Sorry to be a party pooper but they just look like more overpriced "Adventure Bike" bling.

Don't have any problems (err....apart from laziness!) with my 20 quid pair of STEEL 450mm LONG Draper levers.


To be fair...the compactness and (assumed) lightness makes sence but the price doesn't. It's like trying to reinvent the wheel and charging 2 to 3 times as much for it. A bit like a certain Germam bike with an engine derived from a WW1 radially opposed aircraft engine......
