it is 110$ after shipping. they are probably the same except for the internals, but if you buy a rebuild kit and it fit it would probably make it just as good as a real one..machined aluminum is machined aluminum. what could really be so different besides the internals?

Someone buy it and tell us how it is. I don't got the balls or the cash to waste, but I'm sure someone on here does. haha

the shipping is almost as much as the master itself.

what im saying is it is highly unlikely that the lever or bar mount will break (it dosent on other levers that are made in asian factorys) and the antual radial part is machined aluminum, i think if the shit internals are swapped with genuine brembo parts it would be equivalent.....just a thought.....i am going to look up this persons feedback, find someone who bought one and ask them if it is a p.o.s. the internals are the only part i would be concerned with failing...just a thought

not going to lie they work surpassingly well. I used one over in china and it worked just like the real thing couldn't tell a difference. what happens is the factory workers steal prototypes or molds and make them in another factory. then sell them on the chinese black market its pretty sweet! lol

I would be willing to bet money that i t would out last a brembo, and just perform better(period)

lets say your right. by the time you buy the internals your spendin the same as you would for a genuine brembro. i know "in theory" right? fuck theory.
