Best brake levers I've had
Pros: Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Adjustable, Good Fit
"These levers are great. I've got them on Nitto Albatross bars and have an upright ride on a single speed build I've got. They feel reliable and comfortable. Long enough for four fingers, strong enough leverage if you only want to use two fingers. They can be used with either cantilever or v-brakes with a straightforward switch inside the lever that you set when fitting. They look great too."

Flat bar levers
Pros: Adjustable, Attractive, Comfortable, Durable, Good Fit, Great Value, High Quality, Rugged
"These levers are nicely made and do the job well. The pivot has two positions, make sure you set it correctly for the type of brake you have, as this makes a big difference to the performance."

Simple and versitile
Pros: Great Value, Rugged, Versatile
Cons: fiddly
"These levers are one of the few sets of four finger levers I've managed to find and about the only flat bar levers that will pull enough for cantilevers.
The blurb on Wiggle says that they can be used with roller and cantilever brakes, a rare thing on a new lever, but they can also be used with v brakes. This is achieved by varying the position to which cable attaches to the lever.
The cable is held in position by a plastic insert. This is where there's a weakness with the levers. The plastic insert is held in place by an impossibly small grub screw, which I immediately lost. However even without this screw everything stays in place.
The levers are easy to adjust and work well with out any spoginess.
I have a pair of these levers on my commuting bike and I am currently specing out a tourer and will almost certainly use these lever again."
