Levers - folding or regular ?
Levers - folding or regular ?
As you know, levers bend or break evry time we practice 
I need a new short cluth lever - and I live in Israel and make all my buys from US, so I dont know if I rather buy one short folding lever or 4-5 replacement levers.
Do you think its better to use a folding lever or just keep buying new cheap levers ?
And if you guys go with a folding one, which kind ?
the one that fold up or the ones the fold out ?

Thats supposed to be a secret "wink wink"! The gnarly ball on the end of the lever is supposed to act as a slider, protecting the entire bike in a crash. If we all chop the levers down, we'll just have to resort to using cages to protect the bike. Yeah, like that will catch on...... Cages!!!

If your idea was the case why do they put a break away point in the every lever?
Re: Levers - folding or regular ?
For all I know I have the only real stunt bike here (the only one with crash cage and sub cage that im 100% sure)
So I dont want to buy stuff I dont need or not good for stunts, this is why I ask here, you guys have more experience and get to see other stunt bikes and can ride them to feel the setup and such, I cant.

Don't take it literally, I was joking!!! I know the "gnarly" ball isn't going to protect the bike, it can't even protect itself. When you crash, it snaps. I said that because everyone thinks it's a form of "slider".
The folding levers are ok but can still break and offer no easy pull ability unless you buy a Sunline lever and modify it since it does have a cut out for the cable ferrule but you still have to grind a path for the cable to run. Just buy an MSR Raptor and cut the lever down.

Re: Levers - folding or regular ?
what he said. I have run this for 5 years, broke 1 perch, but now I keep everything a little loose so they move instead of break. haven't broke/bent a clip on, lever or perch since I loosened the clip on and level bolts a bit.
Re: Levers - folding or regular ?
lose clip on? **** all that noise!
I rock all my **** solid as ****, still am not breaking levers. Hell lose clip-ons fucked me on the only stunt comp I entered, ******* clip-on was spinning my whole run

Gonna buy me a righteous soon as my current MSR breaks, stupid ****** always broke before when I didn't want it to and now it wont break when I want it too!

The ball is there so the levers don't gore you in the event of a crash.....
