The drum brakes really want some beefy levers. These are very svelt, but they work. You just got to remember where thy are.

Thanks , but it's not without it's own set of problems.

I busted the special pin while installing the chain. I didn't realize it's the opposit of a shimano pin and accidentally broke it installing it. It goes in all the way through and you break off the tip and it mushrooms. Well while installing it I put it in and when the first part was in I broke off the second part ala shimano. Nope! The first part is the guide the second part that's laying on the floor is the main part and now mushroomed at both ends.

:oops: :x and of course they only give you one. Now it's going to cost me $9. To get another pin from them. KMC was not very friendly or easy to deal with about it. How about, hay you bought one of our top of the line bmx chains sorry you installed it wrong and we only give you one, but here is another. No spare if you break on the road?

Oh well I know this build was going too easy.
