Tektro RL520 Brake Levers: Precision Control for Demanding Rides
Upgrade your stopping power with the Tektro RL520 Brake Levers, engineered specifically for cyclists seeking reliable performance from linear-pull (V-brake) or mechanical disc brake systems. Whether you’re navigating busy city streets on your commuter bike, tackling gravel paths on your cyclocross machine, or embarking on a long-distance tour, these levers deliver the control and modulation you need.
Experience the difference of thoughtful design:
* Optimized Cable Pull: Generously engineered for the extended cable travel required by linear-pull cantilevers and mechanical disc calipers, ensuring full brake pad engagement and powerful stopping.
* Ergonomic Comfort: The lever shape fits naturally in your hand, reducing fatigue during long descents or repetitive braking in urban environments. Feel confident and in control mile after mile.
* Effortless Adjustments: The integrated quick-release mechanism simplifies wheel removal for maintenance or transport and allows easy pad clearance adjustment as your pads wear down.
Built for versatility and durability, the RL520 levers are the ideal choice for road cyclists converting to disc brakes, touring bike enthusiasts needing dependable all-weather performance, or anyone running V-brakes who demands a quality lever upgrade. Their sleek black finish complements any handlebar setup while adding minimal weight (just 272g).
