Awesome Brake Improver.
« on: May 20, 2011, 06:40:51 pm »
"The Best improvement you'll ever make to your brakes". an ex World Champion.

"The easiest and quickest way to drop your lap times 50% or more" another ex World Champion.

"Who needs brakes anyway" Marco Simmoncelli, future World Champion.

Brought to you at considerable expense and inconvenience, after years of engineering development and the most rigorous testing at the highest levels of our sport, the one, the only, lightweight unbrakeable front brake lever. Although used it is the only one in stock. This 'must have' most bling item of vintage Moto Cross can be yours for the paltry, 'I'm doing you a favour', 'I won't do this for everyone', 'once in a lifetime', 'never to be repeated' price of $225.00 - a bargain ;).

Ducati boast their 'discovery' of the importance of 'controlled flex'. This piece of advanced engineering bling had 'controlled flex' nearly 40 years ago. There's nothing 'new under the Sun' :D.

I bought one of these in about 1972-3. I was in Oz on holidays and the first or second issue of Trail & Track had a special on them. I bought one for my push bike.
It flexed like spagetti giving no braking power, then broke!

The add said Guarenteed un-breakable

Did it read "Guaranteed un-breakable" or was it "Guaranteed un-brakeable" ;) ;D

I've got a pair of those levers, brand new in the shrinkwrap. I paid a dollar each for them at a swapmeet many years ago. The bloke had literally hundreds of them for sale. When I bought my Boyd and Stellings TM400 from the US it had the super deluxe fashion item fitted.....a plastic rear brake pedal. Unfortunately it broke while I was removing it to paint the frame so it's now landfill somewhere in western Sydney.
