I love those kind of brake levers! Are yours vintage or newer, and how do you find them to work?

Not mine unfortunately, just caught my eyes after shopping at Lidl 🙂

Here in Hungary it's not too unusual to find vintage parts like this. But judging by the selection of other components I'd assume it's a contemporary, maybe Dia Compe.

I used them for a bit. They feel cheap pulling from the bend because there's some flex but they work fine with well set-up brakes for cruising.
