They work quite well, but they're not the most comfortable of levers. They're a lot more comfy when I wear my full-finger gloves.
I'm thinking of getting a Tektro RX 2.1 from Nashbar but they come in only 31.8 mm. Do you have to use shims to mount them on a 26 mm or 25.4 mm bar? Is this a safe/workable solution?
Thanks!
