Aero Brake Levers for Small Hands

Triathlon Forum
1

Hi All,

I’m looking for some smaller brake levers to put on my Cervelo Dual. By smaller, I guess I mean levers with less reach from the base bar. I have the Vision aero base bar and the Dia Compe levers that came with the bike. I have tiny hands (usually wear kids gloves :wink: ) and find these levers quite hard to reach and even harder to get good leverage with. I was admiring a picture of the new FSA levers that someone posted here but haven’t been able to find any to look at in person. Are they really smaller like they look? Anyone have any other ideas?

Thanks!

“are they even smaller than they look?”

Yes. The things are midgets. Three or three and a half inches long, about an eigth of an inch wide. If you have small hands they may work great for you.

The integrated brake levers on the HED one piece are tiny, I too have small hands and they work perfect.

I would recommend the FSA/Visiontech crab claw levers, but a lot of people on this forum think they are some kind of dangerous weapon.

I use them, and I think they are very well suited for small hands.
