  • Cable Pull
    Long Pull ↓

    Long pull brake levers have more leverage than short pull brake levers and pull a longer amount of cable as they are actuated.

    They are intended only for use with long pull brakes, such as linear pull brakes, v-brakes and cable-actuated disk brakes.

  • Clamp Diameter
    22.2mm ↓

    22.2mm is equivalent to 7/8 inches, and is the diameter of most mountain bike handlebars. Many flat bars, risers and city bars have this diameter. It is measured at the end of the bar where grips and brake levers attach.

Product Story

These levers are compatible with all long-pull cable operated brakes. We recommend them for use with our Motolite brakes, but they will work well paired with any v-brake, long-pull mechanical disc brake, (like our Klamper), or any other long pull brake. For a short pull brake lever see our Canti Lever.

Love Levers are machined in-house to extremely high tolerances (0.0002″). The pivot features dual sealed cartridge bearings for the smoothest, stiffest brake lever you will ever use. Like all our components, these will be serviceable for a lifetime.

A 5mm set screw in the side of the lever perch allows you to adjust the reach, setting the distance from the bar to the lever to fit your hands.

Barrel adjusters are included for fine-tuning your brakes, and their oversized design and smooth shape makes it easy to adjust them by hand, even wearing thick winter gloves.

Love Levers are one of our perennial best sellers, and we believe you’ll love the action and the ergonomics of these beauties.

We’ve been offering a front Flat Mount Adapter f We’ve been offering a front Flat Mount Adapter for a few years, so we figured it was about time to make a matching rear. 
  This adapter is +20mm, so good for putting a 160mm rotor on a 140 frame, and also helpful if you need a little more cable housing clearance at the chainstay. We aren’t usually weight-weenies, but after machining a pocket into these they end up at only 9 grams. 
  As usual, these are CNC’d by us to ultra-high tolerance right here in Chico, California. 
  Have a great weekend!
Canti Lever blades fresh out of the tumbler and re Canti Lever blades fresh out of the tumbler and ready for anodizing. As with all of our bearing press-fit features, we hold +/-0.0002” tolerance on these parts. That’s about 5 microns, and for comparison, the average human hair is about 70 microns thick. So yeah, these tolerances are TIGHT is what we’re saying!
Is this weird? Be honest. Is this weird? Be honest.

  We recently discovered these absurdly cozy hoodies that are made here in the USA by Royal Apparel and tried a couple samples out and WOW. This is the closest thing to being gently hugged by the world’s softest teddy bear all day. 🧸 
  We just had a batch screenprinted with a giant red MotoLite brake and threw them on the website…LET’S CUDDLE!

Going through a folder of photos by @johnprolly fr Going through a folder of photos by @johnprolly from 2018 and we are having some FEELINGS of EXCITEMENT that @downievilleclassic is BACK!🎉 This event is SO much more than a bike race, it’s a big family party with all your bike friends in some of the most beautiful rugged mountains in the #LostSierra. We’ll be bringing back our on-course aid station and breakfast tent downtown to support, and y’all wouldn’t believe how many pounds of bacon and coffee we go through on a weekend like this, it’s wild. Anyways, registration opened Sunday night and rumor has it the fields are filling up pretty quick, so don’t wait to pull the trigger on this, it is hands down the BEST mountain bike party in the USA!
