Review: Affordable, comfortable, durable - I have these brake levers on three of my bikes, and they are really great! You definitely will not find a better set of aero brake levers compatible with cantilevers or caliper brakes for $20-25. Like all Tektro products, it is clear that these levers are built to last out of solid materials. Installation was a breeze and these are perfect for commuter or touring bikes when set up with downtube or bar-end shifters, or even single-speed or fixed gear. The hoods on these levers are extremely comfortable to the touch, and it is clear that the ergonomic design is well-shaped for comfortable hand positions. Since they are aero-style levers, the cables route under bar tape for a clean look and they have better mechanical advantage than their non-aero counterparts. I have these set up with Tektro R539 caliper brakes, Tektro Oryx cantilever brakes, and Avid BB7 Road disc brakes. All of these setups are perfect. The levers are listed as 320 grams/pair, and my +/- 1-gram kitchen scale shows them to be 323 grams for the set. They also have a quick release feature built into the lever to give you extra room when removing a tire, but I have never needed to use it. If you are a woman or have small hands, you may want to consider the Tektro RL341 Ergo Brake Levers because they have a shorter reach than this pair. I am a 6' 1" guy, and these RL340s work pretty great for me. Note: If you are running V-brakes (linear-pull brakes) or mountain disc brakes you will need the Tektro RL520s instead of these! Review: Fine levers with a strange ergo bend -- OK for drops, not so much for other bars. - These are Tektro copies of some Cane Creek levers many of us love. The levers feel nice, action is smooth, and there's a return spring and a button adjustment that can be set to alter the lever's return stop point. These are similar to the Tektro R100/R200, but they've got a weird lateral bend in the lever that nominally makes them easer to grab when in the drops. I've not concluded whether that's true on my wife's drop bars, but I've tried these and the RL341s on my mustache bars and Origin8 Gary II Bar and the levers end up weirdly aligned with the bar. I suppose the conclusion is that they're OK for vertical use (on drop bars) but strange and less comfortable on more horizontal bars. ## Features - Tektro RL340 Aero Road Bike Brake Levers: A pair designed for performance - Comfortable design with forged aluminum levers - Effortless wheel removal with quick release mechanism - Non-slip rubber brake hoods for grip - Cable routing kept internal for clean look - Approximately 330 grams per pair in weight ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003U9PYZY | | Additional Features | Easy to Install | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,349,599 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #1,467 in Bike Brake Levers | | Brand | TEKTRO | | Brand Name | TEKTRO | | Color | Black | | Customer Package Type | Individual/Pair | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 18 Reviews | | Exterior Finish | Silver | | Finish Types | Polished | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00822051241368 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Handle Attachment Mechanism | Quick Release | | Handle Compatibility | Application Specific | | Handle Material | Aluminum | | Handle Type | Lever | | Included Components | Screw | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Outdoor | | Item Weight | 4 ounces | | Manufacturer | Tektro | | Manufacturer Part Number | RL340 Black/Silver | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Metal Type | Aluminum | | Model Number | RL340 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Shape | Curved | | Specific Uses For Product | Bicycle | | Style | Modern | | Style Name | Modern | | Theme | Sport | | UPC | 696735855185 822051241368 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TEKTRO - **Color:** Black - **Exterior Finish:** Silver - **Handle Type:** Lever - **Material:** Aluminum ## Images ![RL340 Aero Road Bike Brake Levers - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31xDby9VHsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Affordable, comfortable, durable *by T***A on January 31, 2014* I have these brake levers on three of my bikes, and they are really great!
