Braided levers? You mean with the fringe hangin' down? I didn't vote cuz I don't hate 'em, but I wouldn't put 'em on my bike.

Not for me.........but, whatever floats your boat.

Look OK on a girl's bike, but they seem kinda "feminine" to me. Sorry, guys!

I've never had them and I'm not a huge fan. I had a buddy explain to me that they are good for keeping your fingers a little warmer in the cooler temps because you aren't grabbing a cold piece of metal.

put 'em on my Bob this Winter..cut the tassles off..didn't look right. Without the tassles they are ok. Don't look "feminine' at all to me..but hey..i think all the skulls look stupid..to each his own i guess.
